James,

This doesn't make sense to me. Whether you use the VFP ODBC Driver or Native VFP the data engine is the same, and it runs on the work statation, so wouldn't network traffic be the same? Have you tested this with a netowrk sniffer?

>>>Because you are using Codebook, you are in a good psoition to solve this problem. What you can do is access your own Foxpro data via ODBC, in essence creating a client/server installation. This relatively easy to setup in Codebook if you adhered to its principles.
