I tried to install only provider. nothing chages.
On client computer of course FP7 is fully installed, in fact, my EXE is
perfectly running on client computer. Problem is, "if I don't install FP7 on
my development computer and make EXE file, it does not run on client". but;
EXE file should not be linked to any foxpro7 DLL or components because it
just uses ADO.
basically, if client can create and MSaccess database, identical to fp7
database, also my EXE file should work....
Connection string should not be important because on client, ADO connection
wizard is used to build it. in my development computer for example, I don't
see and foxpro driver because it fp7 is not installed. but on client
computer, ADO sees the FP7 driver and connects to it, test it succesfully.
but when I try to oren recordset in my code with the connectionstring that
user builded for fp7 database, it doesn't word and makes and "provider
error".
