I am very new to ASP and I am trying to connect to a

Foxpro table (.dbf)



This is the code I tried:



objConn.Open "Provider=SQLOLEDB;" & _

               "Data Source=C:\Lois\Probills.dbf;" & _

               "Persist Security Info=False"



Can someone please help me!



Thanks

Hi Tara,

I am using a Visual FoxPro database, but I am connecting to it via ODBC.

This is supposedly somewhat slower, but I have not been able to find a

connection string to go thru OLE-DB directly. Here is what I use:



dim strData, connData

strData = "Provider=MSDASQL.1;" & _

			"DATABASE=DataBaseName;" & _

			"DSN=VFPSystemDSNname;" & _

			"User ID=adminid;" & _

			"Password=adminpw"

set connData = Server.CreateObject ("ADODB.Connection")

connData.Open strData



Hope this helps some.

Mike H.
