>>Moving data from VFP database to SQL Server database is only the first step of the conversion. I have created a simple “to-do” list of what I should do to the data now that it is in the SQL Server. And I am wondering if you have any suggestions on what is missing in my list:
>>
>>1. For each table in the DB set Foreign Key Referential Constraints.
>>2. Set Cascading Referential Integrity for updates in the primary table to be cascaded to the foreign key tables
>>3. Create index tags on “key” fields.
>>4. Create stored procedures that will be used to retrieve data for each application form and report.
>>
>>Anything is missing? TIA.
