I have an VB.NET application that sends a binary parameter to VFP9 database stored procedure using the vfpoledb provider.

The parameter is sent as a binary value to vfpoledb but when the VFP stored procedure receives it, it is a null value.

The application can communicate with SQL or VFP and when using SQL it works correctly.

I have searched the web and have found some vague references that vfpoledb doesn't handle binary parameters well, but haven't found any workarounds or explanations.

Does anybody know anything about this?
