Old VB6 DBF program fails on new Windows 7 machine. err=-2147467259 (80004005) [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver does not support this function
-
We did a program 5 years ago to read a dbf table. The user now updated to Windows 7 and the program now gets this error err=-2147467259 (80004005) [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver does not support this function Connection string=Driver={Microsoft Visual FoxPro Driver};SourceType=DBF;SourceDB=E:\\SPEC.DBF;Exclusive=No It does NOT fail on the development machine which has Visual Studio 6, and Vis Studio 2005 .Net and Vis Studio 2010 are installed. It did fail on a new Win 7 virtual machine after install the Visual Fox Pro 9 Driver (prior to the VFP driver it was getting a 429 activex failure). It is not clear what the correct driver is to resolve this. Can anyone help?

So you need to work out if it is win 7 or the virtual machine. I seem to have heard a number of complaints about drivers and virtual environments.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity RAH

I think if you install MDAC_TYP 2.8 or earlier may solve your issue.
