Resolution:

  • Make sure that you have VFPMANEX ODBC connection setup on the workstation,  For further detail see Article #3055 . 
  • Make sure that the VFPMANEX is the set data source location for the report.   For further detail see Article #3055 .

  • If the end machine is setup as a 64 Bit machine and it is not making available the VFP ODBC drivers for you to select from, download and install odbcad32.exe  by coping it into the C:\Windows\System32 folder...  on the 64 bit machine. The VFP ODBC drivers should now be available to select from. Make sure that the drivers are configured to match the report as it was originally designed. The same reports should now work on both 32 bit and 64 bit machines. 

  • The VFP ODBC Driver can be installed under 64-bit Windows but 64-bit applications cannot access VFP ODBC driver because it comes only in 32-bit version. For 32-bit applications under 64-bit Windows there's ODBC Data Source Administrator for the 32-bit ODBC drivers. Download and install odbcad32.exe by coping it into the C:\Windows\System32 folder...  on the 64 bit machine.
