I'm not great at PHP but I'm learning. Tables are cTeams, cGames, cTmstats.

The cTmstats gets updated each week along with cGames that have been played.

I don't know how to update the MySQL cTmStats with the foxpro cTmstats.dbf

each Tuesday morning. I need to update the MySQL tables at godaddy with my

foxpro data and I don't know how. PHP gives me access to MySQL but how do I

connect foxpro? ... I tried delimited text but they usually crash at 1/2 to

2/3rds using MyAdmin... whatever its called.

I would do update statements as well as insert statements.

You can crunch many togther via a union and pass a long string as a script

So how do you set up to accomplish this? I would make two passes to

identify updates to existing rows and then add in new rows. Create a

script per table for both types of statements.

Just a guess but you have a row for each team in a game ? You also

put in some rows to support players accomplishments in that game?

Inserts are pretty simple :

INSERT INTO table1 (field1, field2)

VALUES ('foo', 'bar');

UPDATE table1 SET field1 = 'foobar', field2' = 'new value' where ID=???
