Well Sergey, if it wasn't for the fact that the CursorAdapter throws an error on ADO variant fields (AERROR returns data type mismatch), this would be my solution. It's really fast too... way faster than RS2DBF, but with RS2DBF it will at least turn those variant fields into character fields. This could be considered a bug or by design depending on how you look at it, but for me it means that the following only works when there are no variant fields...

***************************************
FUNCTION GetCursorFromRS(toRecordSet, tcCursorName)
***************************************
*!* Fails on certain fields that
*!* are variants, and CursorAdapter throws an error
*!* whereas RS2DBF will create a character field for variants
	LOCAL loMyCursor as CursorAdapter
	loMyCursor = CREATEOBJECT("CursorAdapter")
	loMyCursor.DataSourceType="ADO"
	loMyCursor.Alias = tcCursorName
	loMyCursor.CursorFill(,,,toRecordSet)
	loMyCursor.CursorDetach()
ENDFUNC

>>What's the best way known to transform a recordset into a cursor? Say you've got an ADO recordset that is already filled with data and you want to create a Visual FoxPro cursor from that recordset? I'm not looking to execute a SelectCmd on a CursorAdapter by issuing a CursorFill, as I already have the filled recordset object. One way I've found is using the r2dbf.prg that Microsoft released... http://www.kbalertz.com/192692/Converting.Recordset.Cursor.aspx
