>>>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.

>>You need only 2 files to run VFP: Vfp9.exe and Vfp9enu.dll.
>>Additionally you may need gdiplus.dll and/or msvcr71.dll if they are not present on the PC.

>The run-time for VFP 9 is already installed on the server. But what do I use to open files? What I had in mind is something like dBase where you can execute commands like USE, REPLACE at a dot prompt.
