The information in this article applies to:

  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Macintosh, version 3.0b
  • Professional Edition of Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Macintosh, version 3.0

SUMMARY

When doing a complete install of Visual FoxPro for Macintosh or a Custom install with the ODBC Support selected, various ODBC-related files are installed in the System folder of the Macintosh. This article lists the files installed, their location, version, and size.

MORE INFORMATION

The following ODBC files, all with Visigenic Software, Inc. copyrights, are installed in:

  1. The System:Extensions folder: 

                  Name                    Version        Size
   -------------------------------   ---------   ------------
   ODBC Configuration Manager PPC    2.1.1       159,298 bytes
   ODBC Cursor Library PPC           2.1.1        95,362 bytes
   ODBC Driver Manager PPC           2.1.1        95,706 bytes
   ODBC SQL Server ADSP Netlib PPC   2.50.1122     6,695 bytes
   ODBC SQL Server Driver PPC        2.50.1122   320,036 bytes
   ODBC SQL Server Setup PPC         2.50.1122    30,171 bytes
   ODBC SQL Server TCP Netlib PPC    2.50.1122     8,653 bytes

  2. The System:Control Panels folder: 

                  Name                    Version        Size
   -------------------------------   ---------   ------------
   ODBC Setup PPC                    2.1.1        94,563 bytes

  3. System:Preferences folder, once a data source is set up using the ODBC Setup PPC control panel: 

                  Name                    Version        Size
   -------------------------------   ---------   ------------
   ODBC Preferences PPC              none        varies
With the Visual FoxPro for Macintosh Setup Wizard, developers can include support for ODBC on the distribution disks that are created. When these distribution disks are being created for the PowerPC platform, the Setup Wizard pulls in copies of the ODBC files installed in the System folders (except the ODBC Preferences PPC file) and compresses them before including them on the disks. If any of the above-listed files are missing or are the wrong version, the Setup Wizard can fail.

The Setup Wizard can also include support for ODBC when creating distribution disks for the 68K platform. In this case, the ODBC support files are drawn from subfolders under the Microsoft Visual FoxPro:Distribution Sources folder. When these distribution disks are installed on a Macintosh (either 68K or PPC), 68K versions of the above- listed files are installed in the System:Extensions and System:Control Panels folders. The names and sizes are listed below: 

              Name                    Version        Size
   -------------------------------   ---------   ------------
   ODBC Configuration Manager        2.1.1       146,675 bytes
   ODBC Cursor Library               2.1.1        67,402 bytes
   ODBC Driver Manager               2.1.1        66,631 bytes
   ODBC SQL Server ADSP Netlib       6.0b3         5,385 bytes
   ODBC SQL Server Driver            6.0b3       202,513 bytes
   ODBC SQL Server Setup             6.0b3        18,960 bytes
   ODBC SQL Server TCP Netlib        6.0b3         3,865 bytes

   ODBC Setup                        2.1.1        94,891 bytes
Microsoft Office and FoxPro for Macintosh 2.6 also install earlier versions of the 68K ODBC files. Those versions of the ODBC files have Apple Computer, Inc. copyrights. The Apple and Visigenic files should both work with Visual FoxPro 68K applications and Office.
