Linking to Visual Foxpro V7+ from Access - ODBC no longer works

Hi All.
I have a MS Access 2003 database that links to visual foxpro tables using
ODBC. The VFP tables are now version 8 and as the 3rd party vendor adds
newer features I lose the ability to use the current MS VFP ODBC driver to
access that data. I have seen posts to use OLE or ADO, but I do not know how
to link tables in Access using them. The VFP tables are not in a container
(dbc) file -- they are free tables. How can I re-link them?
Thanks!
 
Hi!

Basically, you can't link the tables. You can only access them via OLE DB
and ADO. You'll have to take this issue up with your vendor.
 
Thank you -- not the answer I hoped for, but thanks anyway. Any suggestions
for a work-around?
