yes is like this:
We have a very obsolete program that runs on FoxPro for DOS
but for a big reason ($$$$) we cant change it, our customers
want to see the data send to us in a more easy way like a web page
so I need to take the data from several DBF and turn them into MySQL tables to work with them the thing is that in the convertion is taking a lot of time, and the clients wants to see them in real time
working with mysql is quite fast but when I need to do the part of bringing new data from dbf to mysql it take sometime like 7 minutes for one table (a small one) so imagine a big table with almost 3 times that size it takes forever.
So I try to do it directly with DBF but it takes more time.

• Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
• Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:

  <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>

• Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
