Funny that text and char fields aren't working for you. Usually dates cause the biggest problems. But since you're through that, I suppose you're close. Tell me, are you writing to DBF free tables or a database? In addition, what codepage are you using? 1252? Lastly, there could be some truncation issues so be sure you SUBSTRING(value,1,n) output that might get truncated. It would also be helpful to post any error messages you might have as well.

I used SSIS to do this. Date, int and numeric fields working fine but text and char fields are not epxorted at all. Would you give me a hint? Thanks Have you tried to export data from SQL-2005 to VFP9.
