    Can LLM access FoxPro programmatically, or is the file format easily parsable? Most of FoxPro apps are likely fairly simple CRUD apps. It would be trivial for a modern AI to transcode it to a web based client server solution.

      DBF is a straightforward and widely implemented file format, so I assume LLMs would have little trouble extracting raw data. No idea about programmatic access, but I assume the answer is yes.
