The latest VFP ODBC Drivers are V6 and I know where to get them.

I have Vista RC2 with my VFP ODBC Drivers stuck on V1. The installer wont
touch it.

regsrv32 /U wont touch it!

Delete file wont touch it!

Vista returns a message that suggest I use a recognize installer.

Has any one got around this yet?

Thanks Kerry....................

You could try using the Installshield install builder that comes with VFP
since VFP7. And add the VFPOLEDB.DLL to the old VFPODBC so you can handle a
DBC and DBF with features added since VFP6.

Are you running 64 bit version Vista? If you are, then you're out of luck,
none of the 32 bit ODBC drivers will work from what I understand.
