How do I install or make sure I have the correct Provider for
OleDbDataReader. On my development machine (XP Pro, SP2, VS.net 2k3)
everything works and I have the 'VFPOLEDB.1' provider available. How do I
a) make sure this provider is provided and installed in my setup package or
b) get the correct provider on the machine that the app is installed??

Thanks,

You should have a merge module called VfpOleDB.msm on your machine. I believe that you can consume
this merge module in a Setup and Deployment Project:
