[QUOTE="Slydude, post: 1595492, member: 131855"] Actually we do. FoxPro was a database application available at the time for both Mac and Windows. I am not sure which modern programs can read the data files. That may depend upon the data since FoxPro was capable of saving in several formats IIRC. I am a little more confused by what this means If the data can be salvaged it will probably be through an intermediate machine. I say that because the USB to SCSI dongles seem to me to not be so reliable under OS X. IIRC the last time I used one was either 10.2 or perhaps earlier. Even then many people were finding them problematic. If the old machine is still booting properly it might be possible to transfer the files via network. [/QUOTE]
