What exactly is the error they get? Are you sure it's not merely due to the
users lacking permissions to the path or data files that they are trying to
access? VFP data sources are file-based, so users need to have the
appropriate NTFS and/or share permissions.

What version of the VFP OLE DB Provider did you install? If you installed
the current download version (based on 8.0 SP1), it comes as an msi which
would automatically put a terminal server into install mode if you installed
it using an administrator acount (which would have been required because the
Properties table of the msi has ALLUSERS=1).

I don't remember how earlier versions came, but if you installed a non-msi
version and your terminal server is configured for application mode, then
you would have needed to use "change user /install" or Add/Remove Programs
to launch the installation.

If you post in one of the vfp, foxpro, or oledb newsgroups, you will have a
better chance of getting help.
