Michael,I use Microsoft ACCESS for my 100S and AH racing database. It started out as DBIV or III I think. I think Microsoft bought Foxpro and evolved it/blended it into ACCESS. There shouldn't be a problem converting it using the ACCESS commands. ACCESS isn't cheap, though.Ken Freese65 BJ8

-->Hi Michael: Can you tell us what you affirmatively want to do in addition to getting off the old, dying hardware?   Do you intend to continue using a database? If so, which one?  If not, then what software do you intend to use?  Any other user requirements would be helpful… If you intend to continue using a database, it may be possible to migrate the data directly from the old database to a new database [or, indirectly].

Subject: [Healeys] Non Healey...Computer help needed I use an old "dos" program for my inventory of Healey parts.
It was written probably 20 years back using Foxpro.
The computer that it is on is dying and I want to move it to a current platform.
This is completely beyond my very limited computer skills. 
Is there onyone out there who would be able to help.
