Hmm. I just installed Client Tools, but it didn't change anything - still no go.

I have installed everything except Replication, Full-text search and Client Tools SDK; can't imagine they'd have anything to do with it. I can import text, csv, and Excel, the only problem I have found so far is with VFP tables - and of course those are the ones I need.

I wrote a quick VFP program to update the data so I can continue working on the main project.

We are taking small steps towards getting all our apps to SQ,L which we have only had a few months. These little problems will then go away (to be replaced with newer problems, most likely. Lol)

I had a lot of problems with simple imports (even CSV!) with SSMS on

Win7Pro and it appears it was a problem with my choices during

installation: some of the import/export bits aren't installed by

default with a minimal installation. When I went back to the setup and

added "more stuff" (sorry - months ago, I can't recall exactly what),

it started working better.
