I am having great dificulty in getting my external data to create piviot
tables. I can complete the process on NT systems, but I just got this new
lap
top and Excel will not let me extract information from Fox Pro tables /
data
base. It doesn't even show in the Data type selection drop down.

How can I correct this?
