Powerpivot - compatability with Foxpro

Hi Barry

Thanks for getting in touch. There is no "Foxpro" direct connection available, but you should be able to connect to it using a different method.

For example, if you have the ODBC drivers installed you should be able to use the ODBC connection to pull into PowerPivot.

Here is a link discussing the ODBC drivers:

Alternatively you can export first (to say CSV) and use that as an interim file format.

On Excel 2010 you can download PowerPivot for free so try it out and see which format works best for you.
