How should I properly use Git for Visual FoxPro Development?

should help you out yes... depending on a variety of elements in your project. I currently have apps in both VFP9 SP1, and VFP9 SP2 (with HotFix3 for reporting)
Some issues to HELP run under VFP9 with older format SQL queries

around this issue If you can't find it embedded in the .DBC, but not entirely sure its NOT in there, you can use a VFP tool to dump its contents to a .prg file... GENDBC which is in your installation folder of {VFP}\Tools\GenDBC\GenDBC.prg
Open your database, then run that program, it will cycle through all the tables, indexes, relations, connections, etc and generate the code corresponding to everything in it... You could then look at the output .prg file and see if something in there might be triggering what you can't see otherwise.

like below fixes the issue Yes, FoxPro is backwardly compatible so you can write to the older tables. If you need to make a copy you need to specify the type:

COPY TO c:\mytable.dbf TYPE FOX2X

wish of those help Visual FoxPro v9.0 is the latest and last verion of Visual FoxPro. This product is no longer a part of Visual Studio.
