I've had tables with millions of records and not had corruption. It's more a matter of application design.

You'll also have transaction difficulties if you need to update the one table in SQL Server and others in VFP.

So I am thinking about an approach of moving only one table to SQL Server. This is a very big table (of about 300,000 records) that often gives me problems (corruptions). Then, I could move other tables of the application to SQL Server, one step at a time.
