Yeah, I figured that out. However, I'm not finding the OLEDbDataSourceItem in SF. What namespace and what DLL is it in?

The Connection Manager itself only supports the databases specified. There was never anything else (the VFP and Access are technically OLEDB). In this case, you will have to manually set the data source within the app versus using the Connection Manager.

I was asked a question about how to connect to a Firebird database via the connection manager recently and figured out that the connection manager doesn't support OLEDB (only SQL, Oracle, Access and VFP).



However, I then went to remember how to connect to just a plain vanilla OLEDB database, via the OLEDBDataSourceItem (see http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost16355.aspx) and when I tried to find that class in SF, I couldn't. Am I loosing my mind here? Was this ever in the framework? Or did it get removed? Crazy
