Hi,

I am having problems connecting to a FoxPro database sitting on a shared
folder on a network from within my .NET application. I am using a the
following connection string to connect to the database:

'provider=VFPOLEDB.1;data
source='\\myServer\DataDirectory\FoxProDatabase.dbc'

When I try to connect to the database, I get an error thrown up by the
oledbprovider:
"OleDbException (0x80040e21): Invalid path or file name"

I have tried to resolve this by giving the IUSR account full admin rights
within IIS, but to no avail.

Any ideas why this is happening?

Thanks in advance for your help.
