SYMPTOMS
After installing Microsoft Office version 4.x and attempting to create a graph in Microsoft FoxPro for Windows, you may receive this error message:

Cannot open OLE Server - OLE link failure.

This problem can also appear when you try to use UPDATEGRPH to update a graph title in FoxPro for Windows after Microsoft Office version 4.x has been installed. The title of the graph won't change.

CAUSE
Microsoft FoxPro for Windows is an OLE 1.0-compliant application. Microsoft Graph 3.0, which ships with FoxPro for Windows, is OLE 1.0-compliant. However, Microsoft Graph 5.0, which ships with Microsoft Office, is OLE 2.0- compliant.

RESOLUTION
In order for FoxPro for Windows to use the correct version of Microsoft Graph, FoxPro for Windows must be reinstalled.

STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in the Microsoft products listed at the beginning of this article. We are researching this problem and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.
