Importing FoxPro dbf table

Post by bbylls »

I have a few dbf tables from FoxPro 3.0 that I am importing.
I double click the file and a dialog box comes up to select the character set.
I leave the default selection "Western Europe (DOS/OS2-850/International)"
All the columns come in to Calc OK except for any column that would be a US currency.
That comes in with "#N/A" in the fields.
Is there a way to get at least the number that should be there? I don't care if it's currency, I can change that after the import.
Thank you.
