I am trying to use Power Pivot to extract and analyse data from a Visual Foxpro 9 database. However, trying to connect to the database is proving challenging. Has anyone managed to do this and, if so, how? I hope my query is appropriate to this forum - please redirect if appropriate.

Hi Jim,

Welcome to the forum!

You might run into problems because Visual Foxpro is no longer supported. However, you can try getting the data with Power Query using an ODBC/OLE DB driver. This post has some links to Visual Foxpro 9's drivers. Tip: make sure if you're running 64-bit Excel that you get the 64-bit driver and vice versa for 32-bit.
