Good morning,

As I am refactoring some old code that was initially written in VFP6, I came across the following note above code:
*** Use SUM() function instead of SQL Select because of bug in VFP *** 6.0 
SELECT MYTABLE
SUM QTY_LEFT to nQtyInStock for REC_ID + INV_CODE = "1" + cInvCode
Anybody remember what this bug was about and if I can change it now safely to SQL Select? Or was it from the fact that SQL Select would look into the buffered view of the table instead of the table on the disk?
