Hi
I have some made some Excel applications which are querying data from
dbf-based 3rd-party program, using ODBC driver for Visual FoxPro
tables(Data.GetExternalData....). Applications are made on Win98 computer,
they are situated on shared network resource, and are accessed from
different computers - until lately with Win98 as OS in general.
There were no problems until we replaced some computers with new ones - with
Windows XP installed. For first such computer I downloaded a driver from
Microsoft (~ year ago), and it works. But meanwhile I had to replace a hard
disk in my own computer, and I lost all info about from where and how.
Lately we got a couple of new PC's for users, who need an access to those
applications. I tried to search on www.microsoft.com and with google. On the
first I didn't find anything useful (KB doesn't have anything related to
VisualFox, it seems), on second I found a link to driver download, but after
installing it the driver wasn't available (and most of links returned by
Google look too suspicious for my taste). I think I remember, that when I
installed the VFP ODBC driver on 1st XP computer, there were 2 different
downloads - and only one of them worked. But it looks like I'm not able to
find the right one anymore.
Thanks in advance for any useful info
