 From what I can tell, only one person at a time is going to need access to the 
ODBC function.

Does your screen reader work over Remote Desktop?

Then just remote desktop to the workstation that has the copy of fpODBC.

This moment I'm sitting in the Wyndam Hotel in downtown Philly typing this on my 
laptop that has a Verizon broadband card that is remoted desktop'ed to my 
desktop back in North Carolina. I just about can't tell I'm not at my desk.
fpODBC runs excellent in this environment where I run it from 4 different 
workstations or laptops. As long as I don't get caught in some time/space rift 
the one copy of *ME* works fine this way.

FYI
filePro is not always the best tool to work with SQL databases. A limited subset 
of what you think you should be able to do is available using the "high level" 
interface that acts just like a normal filePro database.
YMMV
