>>>A fairly straightforward approach is to use SQL pass-through to retrieve records from the server into VFP cursors. They can even be given the same names as your old DBF aliases to minimize code changes. You can then perform record based operations like SKIP on the cursors. If your forms are doing updates, you will have to recode those routines to send UPDATE commands to the server. It's not too bad.

Good question! I don't remember, can quickly search here.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
