ISAM for FoxPro 2.6 tables linked into Access 2003

[CC99]

I have been running queries and reports with data from our company database (a third-party system based on FoxPro2.6) by linking tables into MS Access 97 for years. We have now upgraded to XP and Office 2003, and suddenly I can no longer do this but get a message "Could not find installable ISAM".

I've tried to locate the required file on the Internet but no luck so far. Can anybody help me? I am currently using an old pc with Office 97 on it to run the reports, but it's in a different office location and makes the whole job very tedious. Are there any work-arounds?

Any help much appreciated!

You don't need an ISAM. Just link to the FoxPro tables using ODBC.

OK, this is embarrassing now, other than selecting Link to Table, I haven't a clue how to do this. I know in general what ODBC is about, but I don't know how to work with it. That's probably too much for here, but do you know a link to some pages that can help me with that? Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
