access thread: FoxPro Linked table


Message #1 by "Boat Oklahoma" <ohoo@h...> on Thu, 19 Sep 2002 10:42:40 -0500

I am working on writing VBA code to create a link to
FoxPro in Access 2000.  The following source code is
written in Access 97.  By executing it, the link table
(read/write) will be create in Access 97 database.


Function AttachTable(ExternTablePath As String, MyTable As
String) As Integer

     Dim CurrentDatabase As Database, MyTableDef As TableDef

On Error GoTo NoAttach

     AttachTable = -1

     Set CurrentDatabase = DBEngine.Workspaces(0).Databases
(0)
     Set MyTableDef = CurrentDatabase.CreateTableDef
(MyTable)

     MyTableDef.Connect = "FoxPro 2.6;DATABASE=" &
ExternTablePath
     MyTableDef.SourceTableName = MyTable

     CurrentDatabase.TableDefs.Append MyTableDef

     Exit Function

NoAttach:
     AttachTable = 0
     Exit Function
     Resume Next

End Function

      Since ISAM is no longer support in Access 2000, the
source code that I've had will never work.  I know that ADO or ODBC should
resolve this problem.  I have very little experience on
both of them.
      Can anyone help me?  I have been searching and
working with this issue for weeks.  Any help will be very
appreciated.

Robbie
