My office 2010 does not have some of the function of Powerpivot (EVALUATE, SUMMARIZE Etc.). Is this not available to office 2010?
EVALUATE is not a function. SUMMARIZE() is available in the most recent version of Power Pivot for Excel 2010.
It sounds like you've got the SQL Server 2008R2 version of Power Pivot installed. You want the SQL Server 2012 SP1 version, available here.

I have a Visual FoxPro set of tables (.dbf extension) which I want to create linked tables to in MS Access. The forums I have checked seem to indicate that the vfpodbc.dll is no longer supported. I have installed the new OLE driver, but it does not appear as an option in the Linked table manager for selection. I can access this driver from Excel 2016.
Question:
Am I limited to using the programatic link method via VBA or is there a way to get this to work using the Linked table manager?
My OS is Windows 10.
Visual FoxPro Software is "INFUSION version 8.414"
Using the FoxPro OLEDB driver, you will have to connect programmatically. There's no way to link tables the way you can from an ODBC data source.
Microsoft Dropped it's support since MS Jet 2.6, but you can try to use Advantage Database Server OBDC driver
Is it possible to use PowerPivot (in Excel 2013) with SQL Server Express (which version is recommended?)?
Your question is very unclear. How do you want to use Power Pivot with SQL Server Express?
Is SQL Server your data source? Then yes. You can connect to any ODBC data source from Power Pivot?
Are you trying to host Power Pivot workbooks on SharePoint? In that case, you need SQL Server BI Edition or Enterprise Edition to host the workbooks.
Are you trying to promote a Power Pivot workbook to a SQL Server Analysis Services model? In that case you also need SQL Server BI Edition or Enterprise Edition.
There is no requirement to have any version or edition of SQL Server around to use Power Pivot on your desktop. Similarly there is no requirement to have any version or edition of SQL Server anywhere on your network/in your organization to use Power Pivot on your desktop. We have clients who happily use SQL Server against Oracle data warehouses as a source.
I am trying to link my vb.net program to a MS.ACCESS database to display my database to the crystal report, but I cant find the server in the OLE DB Provider.
I'm using:
Windows 8,
Ms access 2013 and
Microsoft visual studio 2008.
See this link and many more like it. 64 bit access. The standard jet driver is not available on 64 bit systems. But, you can download one.
I am trying to create link SQL Server 2005 Report Server Reports in VS 2010 and I get an error "Remote Report Processing requires Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Reporting Services or later". How do i downgrade the control to the one from 2008?
Unfortunately, the only way I know how to get around this is to use an older version of Visual Studio for this type of development. Not much of a solution though.
You will have to use the 2005 version of the report viewer control. Unfortunately MS doesn't allow this to be used in 2010. There's probably a better technology-related reason than "Make you upgrade to 2008", but that's how I feel about this.
However, You have some hoops to jump through:
The old control must be put on a WinForms form with VS 2008 (or 2005).
The new application must be using the full .Net 4.0 profile.
If your main application is signed, the DLL you create in VS 2008 must have a strong name key.
The form in VS 2010, containing the control you built in VS 2008, will not open in design view in VS 2010.
If you're using WPF, there is no native control - you must resort to Windows Forms Interop to make this happen, hosting the WinForms control.
Also keep in mind that there are several versions of the Report Viewer control out there:
- v8.0 = VS 2005, VS 2008, SQL 2005
- v9.0 = VS 2008, SQL 2008
- v9.X = VS 2008, VS 2010, SQL 2008 R2
- v10 = VS 2010, SQL 2008 R2
Hope this helps you.
Couple of customers are still using Visual Interdev and VS.net 2003.
Now the only way i know to get those editors is by having a msdn premium subscription.
Wanted to check can a MSDN professional subscription also get me older VS softwares?
