VFP10 breaks the barrier of 2GB limit and supports large table. If you want to experiment with large tables, then here are empty tables which can be populated with imdb data

VFP Advanced (VFP version 10) is available at http://www.baiyujia.com/vfpadvanced/f_vfpa_about.asp
Please note that you need to have the licensed version of Microsoft Visual Foxpro 9.0, installed in your PC, before installation of VFP10.

  1. Download the 4 files into a directory
    imdb.dbc
    imdb.dct
    imdb.dcx
    tbasics.dbf

  2. Click on this link to view the license agreement and also the field names of each dataset
    https://www.imdb.com/interfaces/

  3. Click on this link to view IMDb data files available for download.
    https://datasets.imdbws.com/

    Download the title.basics.tsv.gz file and unzip it into the same location where you have put the tbasics.dbf file
    You will get a data.tsv file (tab separated value)

  4. Start VFP10
    set default to the directory that you have the dbc and tsv file
    use tbasics
    append from data.tsv delimited with tab
    You will need to delete the first record - as it contains the field names
