I have been using Codebase 4.5, from Sequitar Software, for some time now.  It
supports dbase III/IV, Clipper  and I think Fox files.  There is also 
a portable version for Unix! There is a C++ interface as well which I use all 
the time.  The source is included in the library.  It comes with several
.lib/.dll already made, but it is easy enough to recompile.  I use it under 
windows and have had no problems.

The doc's on the functions are rather good, but the installation is a little
sketchy.

All in all a very good product.  I don't have the address, but I have seen adds
for it in several computer magazines.  If you can't find it let me know.

Regards
Anthony
