Hello,
You need to configure an ODBC DSN that accesses the foxpro database. Assume
the DSN is called foxy.
Then download from http://php.weblogs.com/adodb the library.
Sample code:
include('adodb.inc.php'); include('tohtml.inc.php');
$conn = &ADONewConnection('vfp');
$conn->PConnect('foxy');
$rs = $conn->Execute('select * from table');
rs2html($rs); /* recordset to html table */

PS: This only works on Windows.
