>Huh? What's wrong with that article? Access 2000 installs a version of MDAC greater than 2.1. That replaces the old FoxPro driver with a stub that says "Go use the VFP driver".

Garrett & Craig,

It's not the old FoxPro Driver that concerns Bret. In Access you can create a "Link Table" that links directly to any one of the following file formats selectable in a dropdown list.
Access tables, dBase III, dBase IV, dBase V, MS Excel, Paradox, Text Docuements, and others. FoxPro used to be on the list, but is was removed in Access 2000, helping to fuel the ol' Microsoft is dropping support for... well, you know.
David.
