Hi Dave

>if you have an ocx file that lets you do this in vb, try the ocx in vfp and see what it does. it should work the same, but i've heard of some cases where an ocx will work in one but not the other...

I haven´t , Juan Manuel Gonzáles, in microsoft.public.sqlserver.programming toldme there is a freeware vbsql.ocx, called Thunder db32, and thinks it´s at www.thunder.com.ar, and
he used it for 6 month without problems, but it haven´t the support of Microsoft.

Is There some trial of vbsql.ocx from Microsoft somewhere?
Had anyone tried to use vbsql.ocx with visual fox pro?
Thanks
