All ADO databases are supported by PPL. MySQL as well, althought we don't have a library for it yet.

I believe FoxPro tables can be accessed through ODBC via COM. PPL can do this.

You can find a really quick example for using MySQL here: http://tinyurl.com/323pdc (this is a link to another thread on this forum).* Anything that can be accessed through ADO can use the ADO_* routines, which I believe are found in ADODB.ppl.* The trick, then, would be to find information on using FoxPro through ADO.* I've only worked with self contained FoxPro projects, so I don't know the answer to that for you.

Also, keep in mind that most of these ADO solutions will be PC only.* The two exceptions to this will be Access (which is really only half-implemented on PPC), and possibly SQL Server.
