Gambas is free, well-supported and very good at what it does. It has powerful database binding features See http://gambas.sourceforge.net
Whether there's an easy way to get at the data files you have I don't know. You might need to pull the data out and import into some other format. Contact me off-list if you like.

I have a program that I wrote a few years ago, written in Dbase3 and Clipper, which works in DOS, but although it can be read under windows XP it cannot be worked on due to access to clipper for compiling. I would like to look at rewriting it in a language that would work in Linux. It is a reasonably large program with over 17000 lines in it and uses around 100 databases and associated Index files. Any suggestions please?? Alan
