I found using ADOX the best route. You need to beware of the way Access
treats blanks, dates subtly differently though (always set date american).
Here's some code ripped from a prog I have that might help:
cStartIn = ADDBS(SYS(5) + SYS(2003))
cMDB = cStartIn + 'WinSIMS.mdb'
cDBF = 'pdaexp'
cDBFfull = cStartIn + cDBF + '.dbf'
IF FILE(cMDB)
ERASE (cMDB) RECYCLE
ENDIF
IF TYPE('pCcount') <> 'C'
pCcount = TRANSFORM(RECCOUNT())
ENDIF
oCatalog = CREATEOBJECT("ADOX.Catalog")
cMDBConnString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data Source=" + cMDB + ;
";Jet OLEDB:Engine Type=5;"
oCatalog.CREATE(cMDBConnString)
oTable = CREATEOBJECT("ADOX.Table")
oTable.NAME = JUSTSTEM(cMDB)
oTable.ParentCatalog = oCatalog
cDBFConnString = "Provider=VFPOLEDB.1;Data Source=" + cStartin + ;
";Password='';Collating Sequence=MACHINE"
oDBF = GetRS('SELECT * FROM ' + cDBF, cDBFConnString)
CreateAccessTable()
oMDB = GetRS('SELECT * FROM ' + oTable.NAME, cMDBConnString)
CopyData()
oDBF.CLOSE
oMDB.CLOSE
