PHP/FoxPro

dinamo

Is FoxPro a supported database for PHP? I need to retrieve data from FoxPro and don't even know where to begin. Is there an ODBC driver for it?

I have done some reading and as far as I can tell it appears that it is not supported.

I need to access it on a remote server in a Apache/Unix/PHP/FoxPro environment.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, you should be able to use ODBC to access it. No I don't think there's a native foxpro connector for PHP.

This may be of use, given foxpro similarity with dBase formats

dBase functions

I'd definitely back up all my data before trying to access it via the db2 style access methods, as it's quite possible foxpro has changed enough from that to present a problem.

also make sure no fox pro database is up and running on those files when you are accessing them from the db style functions.
