>> Now Rick, when you say "make sure you load the 32-bit version " what do you mean? Shoul I install W7 32 bit as well or you refer to Office 32 bit? <<
Office comes in 32-bit and 64-bit versions. Make sure to install the 32-bit version on Win7 64-bit OS or VFP and other 32-bit COM enabled tools will not be able to access it. More background here: http://doughennig.blogspot.com/2010/12/microsoft-office-2010-gotcha.html >> And also, the ODBC manager comes with Windows, so how do I get the 32 bit version?<< Win7 64-bit OS comes with both the 32-bit and 64-bit ODBC managers. If you create a DSN in the one found in the Control Panel it will be in the 64-bit and Visual FoxPro apps will not see the DSN. You have to run the 32-bit version. Google will help you find it.
