FoxPro Linked Server
Feb 19, 2008
Hi all, I'm having issues with a FoxPro linked server.
I've set up a linked server to a FoxPro dbc using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro. When I'm on Management Studio on my server the link appears to be working fine and a stored procedure I've created to get the indo from the dbc and put it into a temp table works fine.
However, when I try to execute the sp on management studio on my local machine I get the following error:
OLE DB provider "VFPOLEDB" for linked server "tern" returned message "Invalid path or file name.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure usp_SSRS_007, Line 28
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "VFPOLEDB" for linked server "tern".
And I also get a similar error when I try to test the connection of the linked server on my local machince.
This is now driving me nuts , so many many thanks in advance for any help!!!

Hello,
I want to know if there is an way to SET an index when send a query using the OpenQuery function to a FoxPro database using a linked server in the MS-SQL that points to a System DSN with the MS ODBC Driver to FoxPro.
Thank you in advance,
Aldair.

I am trying to add a FoxPro linked server to MS SQL 2005, and I can't seam to create a linked server that works. What am I doing wrong in linking the server?
I have an ODBC connection that worked but not OLEDB; how can I do this with OLEDB (either VFPOLEDB or Jet, if it will work) and not ODBC.
This is what I thought was right
Code Snippet
sp_addlinkedserver 'test',
'FoxPro',
'VFPOLEDB',
'C:DataSomeDatabase.dbc',
NULL,
NULL,
NULL
But it gives the error:
Cannot create an instance of OLE DB provider "VFPOLEDB" for linked server "test".
Also I know in MS SQL 2000 once you linked a server you could view it in EM, but when I linked the VFP via ODBC I could query agianst it, but I could not open it in Mangament Studio.
Thank you in advance.

I've downloaded and installed the latest VFPOLEDB (12/04) on 2 separate SQL Server boxes.
In both cases, If I connect to SQL Server with Query Analyzer as (local) while on a box, the linked server to my foxpro database works fine with openquery().
However, If I'm at one box and attached to SQL Server on the other box, the openquery() fails.
Here's some particulars:
---
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
@server='VFP',
@provider='VFPOLEDB',
@datasrc='\hdmcpdctis1 isrnddata',
@srvproduct='Visual FoxPro'
--this works on either (local) box
SELECT *
FROM OPENQUERY(VFP, 'select * from tislists')
Go
--but, the same openquery() above doesn't work if the box I'm running it from is attached to the SQL Server on the other box. I get:
Server: Msg 7302, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Could not create an instance of OLE DB provider 'VFPOLEDB'.
OLE DB error trace [Non-interface error: CoCreate of DSO for VFPOLEDB returned 0x80040154].
=====================
One other approach I tried that works while on the (local) box, but fails when attached to the SQL Server on the other box:
select * from openrowset('MSDASQL',
'Driver=Microsoft Visual FoxPro Driver;SourceType=DBF;SourceDB= \hdmcpdctis1 isrnddata ',
'select * from [tislists.DBF]')
With error:
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver does not support this function]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDASQL' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: ].
===========================
Any Help is greatly appreciated! Thanks,

I'm running SQL Server 2008 (x64) version.
How can i create a linked server for Microsoft Visual Foxpro databases ?
I'm using Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 driver.
I success create a linked server, and can browse all tables from linked server connections, but why when query data using
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(PIP_TEST,'select * from tbctrl')
It getting error message
Cannot process the object "select * from tbctrl". The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "pip_test" indicates that either the object has no columns or the current user does not have permissions on that object.

I€™ve been working on getting a linked server through SQL 2005 to work with VFP 9.
I get access denied for any and all security set ups on the linked server. I€™ve checked the folder-level security settings and see that the user I€™m logged in as, and have tried through security settings, and they seem to have access.
What other security settings should I be checking?

I'm having problem with an OpenQuery statement in stored procedure, which should be run on FoxPro linked server. I'm getting either an error messages or not the result I expected. I know that the problem is with WHERE part, without this part it works.
Here is the code:
-------------------------------------
DECLARE @LastDate datetime
SELECT @LastDate = MAX(DateChaged)
FROM tblPersonel
WHERE ACTIVE IN( 'A', 'T')
1. I tried:
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(FoxProLink, 'SELECT ACTIVE, EmpNumber FROM tblPersonel WHERE DateChanged >=''+@LastDate+''')
This line gives me an error msg:
Could not execute query against OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL'.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: [Microsoft][ODBC Visual FoxPro Driver]Operator/operand type mismatch.]
2. I tried to use CTOD() - FOXPRO function to convert character to date.
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(FoxProLink, 'SELECT ACTIVE, EmpNumber FROM tblPersonel WHERE DateChanged >=CTOD(''+@LastDate+'')')
-this doesn't give any error, but doesn't limit the result set as it should.
Thanks all.

I'm posting this because I found this solution after much digging.
The goal here is to incorporate a variable parameter within a OPENQUERY and, ultimately build a dynamic Where clause for use within a OPENQUERY linked server routine. I'm posting because I spent a lot of time trying to get this to work and also, have seen other posts here that hinted it wasn't doable.
First of all - there a good quick article that gets close for FoxPro and possibly works as is for ACCESS:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;314520
Here's code for a solution:
DECLARE @OPENQUERY nvarchar(4000),
@TSQL nvarchar(4000),
@FAMILY CHAR(10)
SET @FAMILY='Touring'
SET @OPENQUERY = 'SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(VFP,'''
SET @TSQL = 'select cov,family,model from vinmast where family='+'['+@FAMILY+']'')'
EXEC (@OPENQUERY+@TSQL)
All shown are single quotes.
In Visual Foxpro, ' ' or " " or [ ] can be used a delimeters
In addition, if wanting to build a dynamic where clause, you could do something like:
SET @TSQL = 'select cov,family,model from vinmast '
IF <some condition met to include FAMILY filter>
Begin
SET @TSQL=@TSQL+'where family=['+@DUTFAMILY+']'''
SET @TSQL=@TSQL+ ')'
End
-----------------
Here's the entire Stored Procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.ewo_sp_DUTLookup
(
@DUTPROJECT char(25)=NULL,--Project
@DUTFAMILY char(10)=NULL,--Family
@DUTMODEL char(20)=NULL,--Model
@DUTYEAR char(4)=NULL,--Model Year
@DUTBEGIN char(25)=NULL,--Beginning of COV/DUT number
@DEBUG int=0
)
AS
DECLARE @OPENQUERY varchar(4000),
@TSQL varchar(4000),
@TWHERE varchar(4000),
@intErrorCode int
select @intErrorCode = @@ERROR,
@TSQL='',
@TWHERE=''
IF @intErrorCode=0
Begin
SET @OPENQUERY = 'SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(VFP,'''
SET @TSQL = ' select dut_pk,cov,family,model,project,modelyr from vinmast '
End
set @intErrorCode = @@ERROR
IF @intErrorCode = 0 and
@DUTFAMILY is not NULL or
@DUTMODEL is not NULL or
@DUTPROJECT is not NULL or
@DUTYEAR is not NULL or
@DUTBEGIN is not NULL
set @TWHERE=' where '
-- Check for Family criteria
If @intErrorCode = 0 and @DUTFAMILY is not NULL and Len(@TWHERE)>0
SET @TWHERE=@TWHERE+' family=['+@DUTFAMILY+'] AND '
set @intErrorCode = @@ERROR

If @intErrorCode = 0 and @DUTMODEL is not NULL and Len(@TWHERE)>0
SET @TWHERE=@TWHERE+' model=['+@DUTMODEL+'] AND '
set @intErrorCode = @@ERROR

If @intErrorCode = 0 and @DUTBEGIN is not NULL and Len(@TWHERE)>0
Begin
SET @DUTBEGIN=RTRIM(@DUTBEGIN)
SET @TWHERE=@TWHERE+' substr(cov,1,'+cast(len(@DUTBEGIN) as char(20))+')=['+@DUTBEGIN+'] AND '
End
set @intErrorCode = @@ERROR
IF @intErrorCode=0 AND substring(@TWHERE,Len(@TWHERE)-3,4)=' AND '
Begin
set @TWHERE=Substring(@TWHERE,1,Len(@TWHERE)-3)
select @intErrorCode=@@ERROR
End
SET @TWHERE=@TWHERE+''')'
IF @debug<>0 and @intErrorCode=0
Begin
print @intErrorCode
print @OPENQUERY
print @TSQL
print @TWHERE
print @OPENQUERY+@TSQL+@TWHERE

After installing sql2005 sp2 a simple select query to a linked server reports the following error message:
Msg 0, Level 11, State 0, Line 0A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded.Msg 0, Level 20, State 0, Line 0A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded.
Before installing SP2 we used sql2005 without any service packs, the linked server worked fine.
The linked server is a Visual FoxPro database.
After uninstalling and installing the 'Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro 9.0' the issue stil remains.

hello,guys,
my question is :
how do I query data from the linked foxpro database?
more:
I have linked a visual foxpro server to my sql server database by using the addserver clause.
Two server is in a local network.
My linked foxpro server named 'fox'.
its datasourse is not a dbc file, but a directory of dbf files ,and its full path is d:foxpro object.
In the directory ,there are three table,'show2003.dbf','sysu.dbf','szszj.dbf'.
And the .dbf files are not in any database.
They are just three files in the same directory.
There is no dbc file.
Now I can see the table list on the right page of the linked server.
But there is something wrong with my sql clause.
sample:
select * from fox..sysu
then the message is:
server: message 7313，level 16，status 1，row 1
the appointed constructure or directory to the provider is inefficacious 'MSDASQL'
I know I may use 'openquery',or 'openrowset'.
The problem is that variable is not valid in 'openquery' and 'openrowset'.
But I must use variable.
so ,please give me some advice.
Thank you very much

I didn't want to maintain similar/identical tables in a legacy FoxPro system and another system with SQL Server back end. Both systems are active, but some tables are shared.
Initially I was going to use a Linked Server to the FoxPro to pull the FP data when needed. This works. But, I've come up with what I believe is a better solution. Keep in mind that these tables are largely static - occassional changes, edits.
I will do a 1 time DTS from FP into SQL Server tables.
I then create INSERT and UPDATE triggers within FoxPro.
These triggers fire a stored procedure in FoxPro that establishes a connection to the SQL Server and fire the appropriate stored procedure on SQL Server to CREATE and/or UPDATE the corresponding table there.
In the end - the tables are local to both apps.
If the UPDATES or TRIGGERS fail I write to an error log - and in that rare case - I can manually fix. I could set it up to email me from within FoxPro as well if needed.
Here's the FoxPro and SQL Server code for reference for the Record Insert:
FOXPRO employee.dbf InsertTrigger:
employee_insert_trigger(VAL(Employee.ep_pk),Employ ee.fname,Employee.lname,Employee.email,Employee.us er_login,Employee.phone)
FOXPRO corresponding Stored Procedure:
FUNCTION EMPLOYEE_INSERT_TRIGGER
PARAMETERS wepk,wefname,welname,weemail,WEUSERID,WEPHONE
nhandle=SQLCONNECT('SS_PDITHP3','userid','password ')
IF nhandle<0
m.errclose=.f.
IF !USED("errorlog")
USE tisdata!errorlog IN SELECT(1)
m.errclose=.t.
ENDIF
SELECT errorlog
INSERT INTO errorlog (date, time, program,source,user) ;
values (DATE(), TIME(), 'EMPLOYEE_INSERT_TRIGGER','nhandle<0 PARAMS: '+STR(wepk)+wefname+welname+weemail+WEUSERID+WEPHO NE,GETENV("username"))
IF m.errclose
USE IN errorlog
ENDIF
RETURN
ENDIF
nquery="exec ewo_sp_insertNewEmployee @WEPK ="+STR(wepk)+",@WEFNAME ='"+wefname+"',@WELNAME ='"+welname+"',@WEEMAIL ='"+weemail+"',@WEUSERID ='"+weuserid+"',@WEPHONE='"+wephone+"',@RETCODE =0"
nsucc=SQLEXEC(nhandle,nquery)
SQLDISCONNECT(nhandle)
IF nSucc<0
m.errclose=.f.
IF !USED("errorlog")
USE tisdata!errorlog IN SELECT(1)
m.errclose=.t.
ENDIF
SELECT errorlog
INSERT INTO errorlog (date, time, program,source,user) ;
values (DATE(), TIME(), 'EMPLOYEE_INSERT_TRIGGER','nSucc<0 PARAMS: '+STR(wepk)+wefname+welname+weemail+WEUSERID+WEPHO NE,GETENV("username"))

Hi,
There is an issue at my company that creates a lot of confusion. Some people blame the slowness of queries on the FoxPro database, so we're considering to migrate to MS SQL Server.
What is the real difference between MS SQL Server and MS FoxPro?
Isn't MS SQL Server supposed to be faster? (It's a high-performance and very mainstream database, where I personally never knew anybody who used FoxPro). Some people claim that FoxPro performs faster in benchmarks. Is it true? If it is, why don't most people use FoxPro?
Also, when buying the database software for the server, which one is more expensive?
I would appreciate any pointers. Thanks.

Hi,
Today was my first day to use DTS. I tried to transfer a Visual FoxPro Database to my SQL Server. I noticed that I am getting errors on the data that contains date fields. So, for testing purposes I transformed the Visual FoxPro fields that contained datefields into char fields. And this works, but obviously I cannot hunt around in a huge database looking for datefields in tables and change them manually. Plus, by changing to char fields I noticed that those fields that are empty are transformed as 1899-12-30. :p
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,
Laura

I know that the DTS Wizard is supposed to be able to handle heterognous
data imports but I can't get it to work with a free FoxPro table. I have to export to a text file and then import from the text file and spend an hour renaming columns and farting around with datatypes.
CAN I GET A FOXPRO TABLE INTO SQL SERVER DIRECTLY OR NOT?
HOW DO I DO IT?
I don't fully understand some of the questions the DTS Wizard is asking. Can anybody give me a blow by blow account before I ring the Samaritans?
Thank you and Happy Christmas - it may be my last if I can't speed up these imports. Either I'll jump under a bus or my boss will make mince pies out of me.
Thanks

Hi everyone,
I have worked soley with Sybase for almost ten years! Now I have been tasked with converting a bunch of data currently in a FoxPro database to a Microsoft SQL Server database. Short of writing some routines myself (which I don't mind doing), is there a shortcut for doing this? Any specifics would be great as it seems this could be mind boggling as far as dates go and so many other things!
Thanks so much!

Using the Import/Export Data Wizard, I'm trying to export a FoxPro 2.5 DOS (as dBase III) table of 15,000 records to SQL Server 2000. I keep getting this error message:
Insert Error, Column 32 ('PROG_START',DBTYPE_DBTIMESTAMP), Status 6: Data Overflow.
Invalid character value for cast specification.
I have SQL Server create the table each time I run the wizard. The new table allows NULLS in this column and I made sure to overwrite the empty date fields in the FoxPro table with blanks to make sure it would result in NULL. Originally SQL Server tried to put this as SMALL DATETIME, but when I got the message earlier, I changed it to DATETIME.
Any suggestions?

Greetings,
I am unsure if this is the correct forum to send this question, but I can't seem to find any information regarding this problem. If this is the wrong place, please direct me to the correct spot.
I am attempting to import data from a free tables FoxPro database to SQL 2000 using a DTS Package which has worked correctly every day for the past 2 years. Yesterday, I got an error.
The package has around 10 tables that it deletes, re-creates, and populates with data from the Foxpro. All of the tables except one work correctly.
When I try to do an explicit import using the ODBC connection to populate that one table, I get the following error: Context: Error calling Openrowset on the provider.
I created an access database on my local computer and setup an ODBC connection and link tables to the database to see if it would work, and it did. So I thought there might be something wrong with the ODBC data source on the SQL Server, so I deleted it and created a new one, used it and I receive the same error.
I thank you in advance for any assistance or direction you can provide me for finding an answer.

Is it possible to use SSIS to synchronize the data between a Foxpro .dbf and a compatible SQL Server table on a near realtime basis?
I have succesfully created an SSIS package that will insert data into the SQL Server Table but this is only useful for migrating data. What I need is a way to insure that the data in the SQL Server table matches that in the .dbf on a near realtime basis.
Or is there a way to link from SQL Server to the .dbf (similar to an Oracle DBLink).
Thanks for any and all assistance.....

The DTS works perfectly when I run it manually. However, when I run itas a job it fails. Before you ask if i'm running it under differentsecurity context. I have already made sure of that. I was logged intothe server through remote viewer, when I created and ran the package,as well as scheduling the job. So the accounts they're running underare consistent. They're the same accounts as the SQL Agent is runningunder and it's the sys admin account.The data source is a Fox pro database with a pull of two tables. I amusing Microsoft OLE DB Foxpro driver as my source connection and OLE DBConnection for SQL Server as my destination. I am doing a simple tableto table transformation. The path of my connection is a mapped Drive:E:Main. There are other packages and jobs within my job queue that arepointing to the same database and they seem to run fine using the abovemapped drive. The ONLY difference between this package and otherpackages are that, they're few months old and this one was created lastnight. I have also enabled logging on this package and here is thebelow error when the job fails:Package Steps execution information:Step 'DTSStep_DTSDataPumpTask_1' failedStep Error Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxProStep Error Description:Invalid path or file name.Step Error code: 80040E21Step Error Help File:Step Error Help Context ID:0Step Execution Started: 9/23/2006 11:39:17 AMStep Execution Completed: 9/23/2006 11:39:17 AMTotal Step Execution Time: 0.031 secondsProgress count in Step: 0

I have taken on a contract to improve reporting for an old HR database that was developed using FoxPro (Visual FoxPro, I think) with the data stored in SQL Server 2000. There are no foreign keys in SQL Server 2000 so the relationships are maintained inside FoxPro.Is there a way of extracting the relationships from the FoxPro code and generate foreign keys in SQL Server, so that I can do proper design?
