Michael is wrong
huh ??? :-(
In that case the dll help database of Microsoft is wrong see first link
According to this database there only exists one vfpoledb.dll the VFP9
driver package could just as easily contain the
same vfpoledb.dll however just to be sure i downloaded and installed the
package in the second link i provided and indeed this version is 9.0.0.5815
so the dll help database is not so much of an help these days .
to see wich version you have
C:\Program Files\Common Files\System\Ole DB
right click the "vfpoledb.dll" tab version

Michael is wrong. There has been a separate OLEDB driver for every version
of Foxpro (and service pack) since VFP7. His own references prove this:
one page talks about the VFP8 driver and the other talks about the VFP9
driver.
Interactively, right click on vfpoledb.dll and choose Properties. In a
program, ask it its Version().

telling someone the other day that my testing reveiled odbc was much
faster than oledb and they said they thought the opposite was true
and asked if I was using the latest version of oledb. I didn't know.
I know with odbc I can go into the odbc manager and see what drivers
I have and what version they are but I don't know how to look at
oledb drivers to see what is installed.

I'm trying to access VFP 8 tables from VB 2008. How can I
determine the version of the VFP OLEDB driver on my PC? What is
the latest version?
