>I am trying to jump into the world of having VFP8 talk to and from MS SQL Server. When I attempt to run the Upsizing wizard, it wants a data source. The message box tells me that I need to go to http://msdn.microsoft.com/vfoxpro/downloads to obtain an updated ODBC driver for this version. When I get to that page, there are no VFP8 ODBC drivers or any other VFP8 updates. Any advice would be appreciated.

Brian,

To access SQL Server you'll need SQL Server ODBC driver not VFP ODBC driver. Anyway VFP ODBC driver wasn't updated since VFP6 and it doesn't support new VFP7/8 data features, like DBC events and autoinc fields. You can download it from http://msdn.microsoft.com/vfoxpro/downloads/addons/odbc.asp
