Hi

I am using the following the codes for importing data from dbf files into sql server.

select * from OPENROWSET('SQLNCLI','Driver={Microsoft dBase Driver (*.dbf)};
DBQ=D:\SSISDbase\GOLD\TBD;
SourceType=DBF', 'SELECT * FROM GM011339')

I am getting the following errors:

OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "(null)" returned message "Invalid authorization specification".
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "(null)" returned message "Invalid connection string attribute".
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. Authentication failed.
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "(null)".

Can you please help me to resolve this issue?

Thanks
Ananthi

Do you have the proper drivers installed on your sql server?
Do you have access to read permissions to the FoxPro table GM011339?
