Jerome writes "Hi,

I have a DBF file and would like to access it via Linked Server in SQL7. I have tried various parameter combinations as per BOL and so on but cannot open that DBF. I would be grateful if you could indicate the parameters of sp_addlinkedserver or what should be specified when creating the linked server in SQLEM.

I don't want to import the dbf or DTS it. It's a file being used by a FoxPro application. So until all FoxPro apps are migrated to SQL, I still need to access this dbf in it's native format and preferably in a 'Linked Server' way. Thanks in advance..."
