Based on the OP's wish list, I suspect he'd prefer to access the files
directly, or (failing that) install some sort of intermediate software
that will convert data back and forth between DBF <-> CSV whenever his
Linux software wants to do something.

If manual conversion is sufficient, then yes, VFP can (I assume) export
and import CSV. Or, on the Linux side, OpenOffice can import and export
dBASE - but there are different flavors of dBASE, so this would need to
be tested to ensure that it works with VFP in particular.

Yes - you're absolutely right. I want to read/write directly with a Foxpro
file rather than just run Foxpro under Wine in Linux. Is it possible?

Thanks in advance,
Tom

To clarify: I want to read/write fox files from a C program in Linux!!!!

Thanks in advance,
