VFPOLE.dll is Microsoft OLEdb provider for Visual FoxPro.

I am trying to get a webservice up on a remote Web Host site that will
use this dll. The web host company has stated that they have
installed and registered this dll, but I am still getting this
exception:

The 'vfpoledb.1' provider is not registered on the local machine

I think it might be a user context/security rights issue for the dll.

Help me??????

The default would be that the webservice would run under the "ASPNet"
account on the local machine.
Give the ASPNet account "Read" and "Read & Execute" permissions on the dll
and check if it works [Right click on the dll, choose properties, then the
security tab. Add ASPNet and give him the specificed access]

This should solve the problem if it's a problem in accessing the dll.
