Cool, I can handle that. I was hoping that it would be that easy. :)

Are you guys planning on updating the version number (eg "VFPOLEDB.1b") for 8.0, or is there another way I should check the driver version before my code uses it?

Thanks again. I am about to see how this version works with .NET Command Objects. :)
