>>The point is that SQL Server can accomplish the same thing - which is something you cast doubt on, in your prior message.
No I didn't. We use SEEK because VFP's SQL can generate >2gb intermediate resultsets on occasion. Never mentioned SQL Server. All I'd say about SQL Server is that if installing SQL Server on each client machine (or via citrix) to allow local processing hits the spot for you and your customers, that's great.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
