Hi Chris,

Yes. Even if you have a VFP database on another PC (or Server), your access to the VFP data using the VFP ODBC Driver is still "processed" on your local machine. The other machine where the data is sitting is only acting as diskspace for the VFP data. (In a way, the VFP ODBC driver is another instance/process of VFP running on your local machine.)
