Metin, you risk losing a lot of time.

VFP cannot do this with some ControlSource,Format setting and user readwrite interaction.


>>2. Do something like this:
>>

>>SQLEXEC(....,"tmpCursor")
>>lcSelect = "SELECT "
>>FOR lnFor = 1 TO FCOUNT()
>>    IF TYPE("tmpCursor."+FIELDS(lnFor)) == [T]
>>       lcSelect = lcSelect + "CAST(" + FIELDS(lnFor)+" AS D) AS " + FIELDS(lnFor) + ", "
>>    ELSE
>>       lcSelect = lcSelect + FIELDS(lnFor)+","
>>    ENDIF
>>NEXT
>>lcSelect = LEFT(lcSelect, LEN(lcSelect) - 1)+" FROM tmpCursor INTO RealCursorName READWRITE"
>>&lcSelect
>>

>>Both were on top onn my head and maybe there are other solution which are better than these.
