title: FoxPro -> MySQL
body: <p>I'm building a website for a client that uses a FoxPro desktop database system.</p>
  
  <p>The data that should be shared between the database and website is essentially a list of members (fairly flat structure: their contact details, a few flag fields etc)</p>
  
  <p>They'd like any changes that are made to these member details to be automatically synched through to the website (mysql database). It doesn't need to be totally instant but the process needs to be easy.</p>
  
  <p>My question is what are the simplest approaches that could be used here? they are willing to compromise a bit to save development time/cost.</p>
  
  <p>Is there an easy way for FoxPro could talk directly to my online MySQL database?</p>
  
  <p>Could FoxPro create an XML or CSV type file and pass it to a web script? (which i then parse and update MySQL with)</p>
  
  <p>Any suggestions appreciated. </p>
