  If this a one time shot you may want to try using the ODBC to import the data to 
EXCEL. Rename the columns to meet R:Base rules.

  Next highlight all the data including the column names. 

  Save what you have hightligted as DBF4 (DBFName.DBF) in the same folder as 
YourDataBase.

  CONN YourDataBase

  ATTACH DBFName

  PROJECT NewTable FROM DBFName USI ALL

  DETACH DBFName

  Hope this helps

Buddy

Sami,

Thanks for the response. I used the following command:

ATTACH st_products.dbf 

and I get the error 

-ERROR- Unable to open file : st_products.DBT (2583)

I was able to get one file open with

ATTACH st_optionval

but when I try to project to another table using

PROJECT s_optionval FROM st_ooptionval USING *

I get the following error:

-ERROR- Cannot find dBASE file in current directory or path (2585)

Any thoughts

Thanks

Steve

Steve -

Try using just the ATTACH command rather than the SATTACH.  It will link to
a dbf table and may work better than the SQL attach.
