>>>One thing I noticed is that you have the data in the D: drive. If this is a network drive, you might have the access rights issue, as you already figured, I am sure. I would, for testing, copy the data to the local drive (C:) and test is that way. In my experience, if you installed .NET framework on the web server, it automatically configured ASPNET account with access rights to all local folders. And of course, I would unregister and then register the VFP OLE DB provider, just in case.
