Well, I need to make my VFP 6.0 application to read the Paradox 7 table into the cursor. It works using the Paradox itself and convert the Paradox tables (.db) to dbf and import the converted files to my application.

Since the user doesn't want to have a Paradox on all machines that have installed my VFP app in a network and users even can't do the conversion I'd like to do and "import" using ODBC. I tried this, but it doesn't work:

m_conn = SQLSTRINGCONNECT("driver={Microsoft Paradox Driver (*.db)};DBQ=f:\PdxFiles")

m_conn returns a "-1" value.

Is it possible that the ODBC driver doesn't support the Paradox 7 tables or is something wrong with connection string?

Thank's, Zlatko.
