If it is based on Oracle then surely you can use the standard ODBC Oracle 
connector, unless of course they have changed the database format slightly to 
make it proprietory.

Subject: VFP, Oracle, and Famous Software

I have a couple of customers that use http://www.famoussoftware.com/ which is 
based on Oracle.  Famous 'famously' has rather inflexible reporting built in 
and did not purchase Oracle's ODBC option.   Famous, however, DOES (surprise!) 
offer a reporting product called 'Face Forward' is offered that extracts data 
into PDF, Excel, etc.  Face Forward is priced in modules, as are the data 
dictionaries (sold separately).

I have no experience with Oracle.  Is there a way to query data from Oracle 
tables from within VFP without having ODBC?
