Error using VFP DB driver

Hello,

I am trying to create a DSN for a VFP database.

In the ODBC Data Source Administrator I click on Add... and select the VFP driver. A message says

"You must first install the current version of the Visual FoxPro ODBC Driver. Go to http://msdn.microsoft.com/vfoxpro/downloads. Select Product Updates, then Visual FoxPro ODBC Driver."

I went to that page, 'Visual FoxPro ODBC Driver' does not exist (?), instead I download 'Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro 9.0 SP1' assuming it is the next best thing.
After installation of the downloaded file (vfpoledb.exe), and rebooting the machine, the same message appears again when selecting an ODBC driver in the ODBC data source administrator.

Perhaps I am doing something wrong?
