>>If you read the DDEX Provider for VFP Data.doc (part of the Sedna Feature Overview docs at http://msdn.microsoft.com/vfoxpro/roadmap/) you'll find that there will be a .NET data provider for VFP. There's always a possibility that this new data provider will be constructed so that it works with a 64 bit OS.

>This DDEX Provider for VFP as part of Sedna is not a new data provider. It is an add-on layer that uses the existing VFP 9.0 OLE DB provider, an interface between the VFP OLE DB provider and ADO.NET to expose information about VFP data sources inside the VS IDE - for design-time use only.

Thanks for the info all.

If there is no plan to have a vfpoledb provider that functions in a 64 bit environment it seems almost pointless to develop the DDEX wrapper. I would much rather see the resources expended to upgrade the data provider.
