>I am looking for a really big data file to use in a VFP demo. I wanted something with a few hundred thousand records, like street names or postal codes or something like that I could run queries on both using DBF files and also with the data transfered to SQL Server. If someone has a file they'd like to share, or a routine that builds a big file (a few hundred megs, a few million records!) I would appreciate it.

I know you can find reverse telephone directories on disk, also zip code databases must be pretty bug... but, you don't say how many records you consider big.

We are using the Data Architect from Sybase at work. I haven't personally used it yet, but one of the features is that it generates test data automatically.
