>>I need to modify a couple of tables residing on customer server. I connect to the server via VPN. I don't want to install a full version of VFP on the server. Does anybody know if there is an .EXE tool that I can copy to the custom server, run it there and open and modify (hack) some tables? I would copy the tables to my PC and modify on my PC but the files are quite big. If I don't find the right tool to do it on the server, I will have to copy the files back and forth.

I do have rights to the server (full rights). But I am not sure how I would point to the server drive from my PC. For example, if I have Command prompt of my VFP open, how would I call "USE MYTABLE" where the MYTABLE reside on the server and not on a mapped drive. Are you suggesting that I can map the server drive to my PC? Then how?
Thank you.
