Riccardo,
There are a few in the UT Downloads area (http://www.universalthread.com/), or
there are instructions on how to do it with a Hex editor (one comes with VFP) on
the Fox Wiki (http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~NotATable).

Hi Riccardo:

What version of VFP are you using? If you are using VFP 8.0 or 9.0, then
look at the SET TABLEVALIDATE command. Setting it to 0 might allow you to
open the table.

I hope this helps.

He said it's a V6 table.

If he really meant using VFP6, the case
could also be, that he has a V8 or 9 table
with some feature VFP6 doesn't know,
like Autoinc or a Varchar field.

Bye, Olaf.
