Gang,

Does anyone know how to enumerate installed OLEDB providers on a local machine?

Thanks

Steve
 
All of these names and the details are stored in the Windows registry and I think the location depends on the OS. I have Windows XP and my settings are under the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI

You can use the VFP Fox Foundation Class (FFC) called Registry in the Registry.vcx to read (and write entries). This class supports traversing the registry to enumerate all the entries.
