I have a MS SQL 7 database and I need to change one table and delete many records.

Can I just use a remote view in Foxpro, edit the records and delete the ones I do not want??

Then do I need to PACK the SQL table????

How I can I load an SQL table without it taking 30 minutes to load??
I setup a remote view to the table, but when I open it, it locks my machine until all of the records load and that is at least 30 minutes.

THANKS
