Converting dBASE .CAT Files into Visual FoxPro Projects
See Also
If you have existing dBASE catalogs (.cat files), you can convert them into Visual FoxPro projects (.pjx files).
To convert a dBASE catalog
- From the File menu, choose Open.
- Select the name of the dBASE catalog file, and then choose OK.
When you open a dBASE catalog, Visual FoxPro does some or all of the following, depending on the catalog contents:
- Converts tables to Visual FoxPro format.
- Converts screens to forms so that you can modify them with the Form Designer.
- Converts reports and labels so that you can modify them with the Report Designer.
- Adds dBASE queries (.qbe files) to the Project Manager as programs under the Code tab so that you can run them.
