I'm trying to access a foxpro data base from SSRS 2008 r2 on a 64bit server. I've developed the report on this same server using BIDS and it worked fine and retrieves the data when I click on "Preview" tab in the BIDS, but when I deploy the report or even create it using the Report Builder I'm getting the following error:
"The 'vfpoledb' provider is not registered on the local machine."
I've read the following links seeking for a solution:

but no solution.
the weird thing is that how it works on BIDS and does not on SSRS when it runs on the same machine ?! is there a solution for running the report on SSRS as it works fine on BIDS ?
