Using the command:
sp_addlinkedserver 'AZ', '', 'VFPOLEDB', 'c:\trackercommon\data\comp01\company.dbc'

I can make a linked server that works in SQL 2000 but not in 2005.

I have used VFP OLE DB 9.0 from MS and no luck. I see some issue about memory leakage on MS's site but I can't even get the linked server to recognize the VFP database.

Openqueries fail, etc.

Thoughts?

Think I'm closer. Turns out that MDAC has not recognized VFPOLEDB despite having downloading and installed it on Windows Server 2003. I have now tried regsvr32 and it says it's registered but still not listed in MDAC (used the component checker). Thoughts?
