I don't know if I have tried to switch so can't say it works for me but I will try it later. This shouldn't have anything to do with it, but have you installed the VFP data where it is supposed to be? Also I can't remember what is in the DevGuide with this, but I seem to remember I have a VFP Ole Db provider installed. I have to run to an appointment, but I will check when I get back if someone else hasn't answered this.
