Oops. Thanks Ken for pointed this out. I did mean VFP 8.

>>Just to let you know, the beta version of VFP 9 you can download now has a time bomb that expired Feb. 1. That means you can not run VFP 8 without setting your computer clock back prior to Feb. 1. The good news is that VFP 8 has been released to manufacturing and will be available to MSDN subscribers this week. The OLE DB provider in the final release of VFP is even more compatible then the version in the beta release.

>I think you mean "beta version of VFP 8", not 9. You must be so excited about the new version of VFP that you made this typo. :)
