Al,

Thanks for the information. But the more I'm reading, I'm finding I really need to study a bit more about programming. Thanks alot.

>Using ODBC with VFP, you're not generally "programming" ODBC per se, rather, you configure it. Conceptually it's a driver, like a video driver - once set up, you have a path or pipe to an ODBC data source that VFP can use, either with remote views or via DBSETPROP(), etc.
