guys,

we are experimenting with ASP.NET and VB.NET and are having a tough time trying to connect to a VFP 8.0 database. we have no problems connecting to a SQL database.

first we tried a standard ODBC connection and then we tried the following OLEDB connection string and we keep on getting error message "892".

"Provider=VFPOLEDB.1;Data Source=C:\Inetpub\dbfiles\cs21\;"
"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\Inetpub\dbfiles\unique\; Extended Properties=dBase 5.0"
Provider=ODBC;DSN=1-800-predict-cs21;database=cs21;Exclusive=No"

can anyone provide any insight that will help me get started with using Foxpro databases with DotNet?

thanks,

vim
