Craig;

I have used the upsizing wizard in VFP 6.0 once and only once - out of necessity and time restraints, to create a SQL Server 7.0 dbc and tables. It worked seamlessly and either I was lucky or it was designed to work with what I did.

My preference is to do this within SQL Server, but it is nice to know it worked!
