Did you try to create a fieldtypevisualfoxpro.xml file and put "visualfoxpro" 
in field-type-name ?

I am working on Win XP, i have the FoxPro database and have installed the
Visual FoxPro odbc driver.
I can access the FoxPro database from Access so i know that the odbc driver
works well.

Now i am trying to configure ofbiz to access the FoxPro database with the
following:

   <datasource name="odbcfoxpro"
           helper-class="org.ofbiz.entity.datasource.GenericHelperDAO"
           field-type-name="mysql"
           check-on-start="true"
           add-missing-on-start="true"
           check-indices-on-start="true"
           use-foreign-keys="false"
           use-foreign-key-indices="true"
           join-style="ansi-no-parenthesis"
           alias-view-columns="false"
           always-use-constraint-keyword="true">
       <inline-jdbc
               jdbc-driver="sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver"
               jdbc-uri="jdbc:odbc:Arca2000Pro"
               jdbc-username=""
               jdbc-password=""
               isolation-level="ReadCommitted"
               pool-minsize="2"
               pool-maxsize="250"/>
       <!-- <jndi-jdbc jndi-server-name="localjndi"
jndi-name="java:/MySqlDataSource" isolation-level="Serializable"/> -->
   </datasource>

but I get a lot of
2008-03-15 15:27:57,625 (main) [       DatabaseUtil.java:1288:ERROR] Error
getting column info for column. Error was:java.sql.SQLException: Column not
found

Can anybody please suggest a solution?
Could it be becouse of the field-type-name="mysql" (but in this case how can
i get a Visual FoxPro fieldtype file?)

Thank you

Hi,
i need to make my ofbiz box retrieve products information from a legacy
FoxPro database.
The data should be done on a regular basis (lets say every night of once a
week) so it is not just a one time data import.

Googling around i have found this
http://lists.ofbiz.org/pipermail/users/2005-May/007836.html

Is out there any more updated how-to or documentation i could start from?

Many thanks for you suggestions!

Bruno
