Hi:

Presently, I am using SQL Server as the back end for a VFP application.
I'm getting ready to setup a duplicate system in another location ... and a few more location in the near future.
It's been bothering me for years that perhaps SQL Server is not needed - over kill for this application.
Why did I decided on SQL Server in the first place?
Less data corruption problems ... and to-date, not a single database problem.

There are 15 work stations on this netowrk, and the application is installed on all 15 workstations.
Each workstation queries and/or writes to SQL Server every 0.25 second - via a VFP timer in the application.
The largest table has only about 20,000 records.

My question is:
How can I make a VFP Database as reliable as SQL Server?
Will 3rd party application make it more reliable?
Is VFP Database 9.0 different from the past and more reliable?

TIA
