Hi Mike,

You can get the beta release at:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/downloads/default.asp?url=/downloads/sample.asp?url=/MSDN-FILES/027/002/098/msdncompositedoc.xml

This is the beta for VFP 8 that also contains the updated OLE DB provider. The provider will be available separately after the release of 8.0. This beta version does not contain all the enhancements made to the final version but it is still better than the version that shipped with version 7.

>Sounds like good news, You wouldn't know if there is a beta avalable of the VFPOleDB.DLL? Not that I'm a skeptic, but I'd like to begin playing. The project that I'm begining isn't slated for production for a year, but I don't want to loose valuable time.
