RE: dbf

J''ai déjà un requête pour ce type d'importation :

let CheminFichierDBF=(CF)=>
// (Importer DBF chemin complet comme exemple SPTFT\PRD05_18.DBF)

let
Source = Odbc.Query("dsn=dBASE Files", "SELECT *#(lf) #(lf)FROM C:\"&CF)
in
Source
in
CheminFichierDBF

Use the OLDB of Visual Foxpro:

Provider=VFPOLEDB.1;Data Source=C:\DBF\INVENTORY.DBC;Collating Sequence=MACHINE

https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14839

Works on the 32-bit power bi version
