Charles,
I didn't have VFP and SQL server on this box so it took me sometime to install them and test:)
I created a database in VFP with 3 tables in it. Those 3 tables had c(38),c(36) and c(16) nocptrans versions respectively.
In SQL server DTS I directly mapped 36,38 ones to uniqueidentifier and 16 bytes one to varbinary(16). All imported sucessfully. After import I changed type of 3rd one to uniqueidentifier.
Checked values in both VFP and SQL server and they matched.

>Okay, I think I am starting to get what you are saying. ( still don't understand pguid and rguid as you use them but maybe I don't have to in order to use the function. ) I did understand we were talking about using code on the VFP side to 'upsize' and not to use the wizard.

If I do that the DTS transformation allows me to select UniqueID as the destination data type, but the import fails saying that a forcedconversion is required and I can't find out how to do that. ( will go back and try again on the DTS wizard )
