Transfer ur data from Ms-Access, Dbase, Foxpro, Excel, CSV and Text Database. I have used this code

Transfer ur data from Ms-Access, Dbase, Foxpro, Excel, CSV and Text Database. I have used this code for reading data from all mentioned data

API Declarations


'\ 4 Labels with caption "data Source","File Name","UID","PWD"
' \one combo box named "cmbDataSource"
'\ 3 Text Box named "txtFileName", "txtUID with text Admin","txtPWD"
'\ One common dialog control named "cdlgbrow"
'\ 3 Command Buttons named "cmdbrow","cmdConnect","cmdClose"
'\ Jusr run the code and select data source, Select fiel name, click on connect Button
'\ I am also developign a data transfering utility using that u can transfer ur data from any source data base to any target database .. I am trying to include XML as well. Happy coding enjoy..
