>VFPCOM can convert both ways - two methods, one goes rs->cursor, the other cursor->rs. AFAIK, though, there's no way to create an RS directly within VFP; you might want to look at John Petersen's Whitepaper on VFP and ADO. XML might be a better way to approach the problem.
I've been doing some testing with VFPCOM and creating a RS from a cursor works but the reverse generates a return code -10, but I can't find any documentation on the errorcodes genereated by VFPCOM.
I've been doning some testing with ADO under VFP and you can create a RS using an ODBC connection to your database.
One thing I found out : VFPCOM won't win any prices if it comes to performance ...
