Hi All

I'm using a SQL Azure Db in a project with VFP.
Everything works well so far. Now, accessing the SQL Azure DB needs SQL Server Native Client drivers v10 or V11.

The idea is to check for the drivers and if not installed, install them.

a) How can I check from VFP if the drivers are installed? (other than trap the error, which I'm doing already).

b) How to install them programmatically if needed?
I'm thinking on including the sqlnclix32.msi in the VFP exe and then extracting it and running it, but I'm wondering if there is a best way.

Thanks in advance!

Soy feliz....                       

...And I'm happy, quite happy, so do I yell it;
Look, so the world knows it, so be known:
I'm happy...
