Hi Richard;

I am curious about what you mean by exposing the stored procedures to the client. Do you mean that you need a facility of retrieving the names and parameter requirements of the stored procedures? Or is this a VFP issue (using ODBC to connect to a vfp database)?

If the issue is the former, there are some interesting options you might want to consider.
