John;

There have been several programs to convert ADO objects to Visual FoxPro cursors. I did not like the “hit” in the conversion process as the programs took into account the type of data, etc. while it built a cursor. The programs are nice in that they do the work for you but you pay a price - speed!

I tried Create Cursor, hard coded the fields and did a scatter/gather using a loop and it took a fraction of a second to create a cursor and fill a combo box. That was about three years ago. If you need more information let me know and I will look for it at home.

Maintenance is an issue with this method but it is very fast! If you add a field or change the size of a field or data type – you have to go into your form to make the appropriate changes.
