    Re: Manage DataBase

    I assumed that's what Aaron meant. You could put the usb
    key *on* a fob. ;-)

    Either way, we still need to know the format of the data
    on the usb key (or whatever you want to call it)
    before we can recommend a method for reading it.

      sorry I meant the word 'dongle'

      let's pretend for a second he's referring to a dongle; it kinda sounds
      correct.

      I haven't heard of 'USB key' before except in that context

      lets pretend he means a software FOB.. in USB form

      and he wants to get off of this unique database/application onto a
      standard database


      so.. how about we see if he can import the data via ODBC; and pretend
      that his fob runs foxpro or btrieve or something
