SQLite to FoxPro conversion and synchronization.

SQLite to DBF Conversion and Data Synchronization.
Are you looking for a reliable solution to convert your SQLite database to DBF format or synchronize data between SQLite and DBF? Look no further! Our software products offer a seamless and efficient way to accomplish these tasks, ensuring smooth data transfer and synchronization.

Convert your data with DBConvert.

The DBConvert for FoxPro & SQLite tool simplifies migrating your SQLite database to the DBF format. Whether you need to convert single or multiple databases, our software handles it easily. With just a few clicks, you can transform your SQLite data into the DBF format, allowing you to integrate it into your existing DBF-based applications seamlessly.

Sync your databases with DBSync.

In addition to conversion, DBSync software facilitates data synchronization between SQLite and DBF. This feature enables you to keep both databases updated with the latest changes. By synchronizing data between the two formats, you ensure that any modifications made in SQLite are reflected accurately in your DBF database and vice versa.

Why use DBConvert software?

Various databases, including Visual FoxPro and dBase, have widely adopted the DBF format. Many organizations and developers choose to convert or sync their data from SQLite to DBF for several reasons:

  1. Compatibility: By converting or synchronizing SQLite data to DBF, you ensure compatibility with databases that rely on the DBF format, such as Visual FoxPro. This compatibility allows for seamless integration and sharing of data between different systems.
  2. Legacy System Integration: Some organizations still rely on legacy systems built around the DBF format. By converting or syncing data from SQLite to DBF, you can seamlessly integrate your SQLite data into these legacy systems, ensuring continuity and smooth operation.

Our software products provide a reliable and efficient solution for converting SQLite to DBF and synchronizing data between the two formats. Say goodbye to manual data transfers and enjoy a streamlined process that ensures your data remains accurate and up-to-date across platforms. Experience the benefits of seamless SQLite to DBF conversion and data synchronization with our intuitive and powerful software solutions.

Using SQLite to FoxPro conversion and synchronization tools.

When launching the DBConvert or DBSync application in GUI mode, it seamlessly guides you through the steps to initiate database migration or synchronization:

1. Connect to SQLite source database.

Specify the username/password and host/port parameters if your source database requires login credentials.

Connect to SQLite source database from DBConvert

2. Connect to FoxPro destination database.

Specify parameters for the destination database similar to the source, defining connection settings and username/password pairs.

Connect to FoxPro target database from DBConvert

NOTE #1: Each DBConvert or DBSync tool's name comprises two different databases, enabling any specified database to operate as the source or destination. Furthermore, the same type of database can function as both the source and destination.

NOTE #2: Connections to cloud databases (e.g., Amazon RDS, Google Cloud, or Azure SQL) aren't explicitly specified in the user interface but use the same settings as traditional on-premises databases.

NOTE #3: Connections to source and target databases remain active until you close the DBConvert/DBSync application or reopen new connections.

Refer to our documentation for specific source/ destination configurations for different databases.

3. Configure database migration options.

Specify the tables, fields, indices, and views you want to transfer to the FoxPro destination database by checking/unchecking the corresponding boxes.

Customize general database/ tables settings. Or configure specific table , field, index object individually when migrating data.

Explore our articles in the user's manual about Configuring database migration options. for detailed information.

The screenshot below summarizes the general features available in DBConvert software.

4. Detection of potential database migration issues. Errors and Warnings

The database enforces certain relations on the data, and on the customization step, an intelligent error checker verifies all possible data integrity and referential integrity issues. It highlights any problems before migration starts.

By default, DBConvert attempts to automatically map the database types of the source SQLite database to the closest equivalent of the target FoxPro database types. However, you can manually change the data types for the entire database globally using the "Global mapping" or individually for each field.

Explore the Intelligent error checker for more information. on errors and warnings

5. Execution. The final stage of data migration.

Initiate the conversion or synchronization process after configuring source and destination databases in the previous steps.

Click the "Commit" button to start conversion. Here, you can also monitor the migration/synchronization process.

Optionally save connection settings and configuration parameters into the session file to schedule the launching of sync or migration jobs regularly.

Command line mode

Pass previously saved sessions as parameters to the Command-Line DBConvert Client. A session retains SQLite source and FoxPro target database connection settings with other specified options.

Example:

C:\Program Files\DBConvert\foxpro2sqlitePro\foxpro2sqlitePro_Cons.exe /Session:"Session_Name"

NOTE: First, run the software in GUI mode to create a session file with initial parameters.

Built-in scheduler.

Our applications include a built-in scheduler to run database migration and sync jobs at specified times. Set the scheduled date and time to execute job sessions automatically.
