Determines if the driver opens the Visual FoxPro database exclusively when you access data using the data source. Other users cannot access the database or the tables in the database while the database is opened exclusively. Tables within the exclusively opened database are opened as SHARED. To open a table exclusively, use the SET EXCLUSIVE. # Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9 run on Windows 10 THAT'S ABOUT VFP ITSELF, not ODBC # Using the VFP FoxPro ODBC Driver with Your Visual Basic Application THAT SHOWS HOW TO USE THE ODBC DRIVER FROM VB, IF IT'S ALREADY INSTALLED.
I am attempting to add the Visual FoxPro ODBC driver to my list of active data sources, but am unable to do so.
I have installed the latest driver downloaded directly from microsoft, and I have found the driver .dll file in windows explorer. However, when I attempt to add the data connection via ODBC Data Sources (32-bit), the driver does not come up in the available list.
I checked the list in ODBC Data Sources (64-bit), just to make sure it was not listed there. I am aware that the FoxPro ODBC driver is 32-bit only.
What next steps should I take in troubleshooting this issue? I've been googling for over two hours now, with no new developments. Thanks.

Installed it on Windows 10 and is working properly.
