I've been trying to upsize my database and I can get to the second screen on the wizard to select a connection. I've created a connection for my computer using MySQL ODBC 3.51 and even tried MySQL ODBC 5.1 and I only have mysql server 5 installed on my computer, but each time I try to establish a connection for FoxPro it tells me that the server I am using is not MySQL. I have no idea why it is doing this.
Help please.
 
Samalia,

The VFP Upsizing Wizard only works with SQL Server. It's actually called the SQL Server Upsizing Wizard (though admittedly you have to look closely to see that).

If you want to upsize to MySQL, I'm afraid you'll have to look for a different tool.
