Hi Samuel,

> the compiler supports most of the required commands the two big missing are APPEND FROM (only APPEND BLANK) and SELECT SQL.

even if the compiler will support these commands in time, what about the data layer?

As the contest will be run on Windows XP I tend to use the vfp9t.dll data layer rather than your new data layer. I may be wrong, but even if you already implemented these commands in the data layer it will take some time to get them as speedy as VFP's implementation, right?


>Where can I read more about the contest and specially where can I get the data or sample data. I did a quick check and did not find anything, a link would be appreciated.

As I understand one has to be a subscriber of the magazine to join the contest. I uploaded the data generator and the contest description to one of my sites for you:

Unfortunately everything is in german but the diagram in the PDF should tell the required steps nevertheless. Feel free to ask me for details.

BTW, does someone here know a way to translate the whole PDF document to english?
