Can someone tell me how to connect to a VFP database from PHP

Thanks,

Here's the first part:

Using COM from PHP to get to the ADO object model.  ADO is an
abstraction of OLE DB funtionality.

The second part is connecting to an OLEDB Provider for VFP:

That should get you going.

(1) php has basic dbase functions, which can also operate on vfp dbf
files, but it will not make use of cdx files, and therefore not very
useful except for trivial application. (2) better and simple way out
is odbc. you need (i) vfp odbc driver from ms (ii) define dsn in
windows (iii) write sql statement that conform to vfp (ms) odbc.
