How To Know if VFP for Mac Uses PPC or 68K ODBC Driver (150790)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Macintosh 3.0b
This article was previously published under Q150790 SUMMARY
Microsoft Visual FoxPro for the Macintosh development environment is
designed to run on a Macintosh PowerPC. However, the professional edition
of Visual FoxPro for Macintosh allows development of applications that run
on a Macintosh with a 68k processor. When developing applications that
access remote data via ODBC, it is important to understand which versions
of the ODBC drivers are required by both the development environment and
distributed applications.
MORE INFORMATION
Because the Visual FoxPro development environment only runs on a Macintosh
PowerPC, the appropriate PowerPC ODBC driver must be installed to access
remote data.
When distributing a PowerPC version of an application, the same ODBC driver
used during development is used with the distributed application. However,
when distributing a 68k version of an application, a separate 68k ODBC
driver must be used.
