FoxPro database connectivity

[smtwtfs007]

I have an ASP.NET website.
I'm trying to connect to a Foxpro database (ADO.NET) with the
following
connect string:

txtConnectionStr.Text = "\\soya4042\Qd\LM\LMS\Data"
Dim strFoxProDirectory As String = txtConnectionStr.Text
Dim strConnection As String = "User ID=;DSN=;Cache
Authentication=False;Data Source='" & _
Trim(strFoxProDirectory) & "'" & _
";Provider='VFPOLEDB.1';Collating
Sequence=Machine;Mask " & _
"Password=False;persist security info=False;"
& _
"Mode=Share Deny None;Extended
Properties=;Encrypt Password=False"

If I put the same string in a VB.NET the connection string works fine.
Do you have any other suggestions?

I can open the network path and read the files in my windows explorer \
\soya4042\Qd\LM\LMS\Data

Invalid path or file name.
