Hi!


Fida, what the length and precision of your numeric field?

VFP allows wider range for numeric fields than SQL Server. So, when you upsize data to SQL Server, wizard might decide to use float or even double field type to fit your data into field on SQL Server . You can specify field types manually for each field in each table in upsizing wizard.

The professional level of programmer could be determined by level of stupidity of his/her bugs

It is not appropriate to say that question is "foolish". There could be only foolish answers. Everybody passed period of time when knows nothing about something.
