Hi Ron, Try using DBD::XBase by Jan P. It's available on CPAN. I've been using it for years to convert Foxpro tables to MySQL. At one time there was a script available at the mysql website which would do the conversion. I hacked it into a version that I use on a regular basis. I can send it to you off list if you'd like.
