According to mskb#269881 VFP ODBC driver should be used with backgroundfetch=no to avoid a bunch of problems.

>Some of the answers I have found are so obtuse that I'll post them here to save others the pain... assuming there is anybody left in the world who is still using the VFP ODBC driver.

>If you use "backgroundfetch=no" in your connection string, those TMP files do not get created. If you leave backgroundfetch out of the string, the default is "yes", and they will get created.
>
>Furthermore, the setting of backgroundfetch apparently also determines the security identity of the table accessor. That is, if backgroundfetch=no, then the accessor is the server's IUSR identity. But if backgroundfetch is ON, then the accessor is the server's IWAM identity.

>The gotcha here is that (depending on your initial security settings) you might need to go back and reset security on your tables if you change the value of backgroundfetch. Otherwise IIS will crap out with an ODBC error.
