>Hi Ken,

>I see in the September VFUG Newsletter that you are considering linking VFP and SQL Server together, where SQL Server saves the data and VFP does the rest of the work. I think that is a great idea. Great for us, and great for MS because it makes SQL Server more usable. Bill and Steve should like that.

>A suggestion for an improvement in VFP 8 or in an SP (better): In the database designer, it would be nice if one could organize tables in pages. The pages would mean nothing except for presentation; a way to logically group related tables in a single picture. If you have 50 or more tables in a DBC it is very hard to present things clearly if they are all in the same plane.

VFP 7.0 already has great features for connecting and using data from SQL Server. I plan to have some information like whitepapers added to http://msdn.microsoft.com/vfoxpro that helps educate VFP developers on this topic.

I will pass along your suggestion for the designer. Note that there is a WishList feature on the UT for VFP that is good for posting requests for future versions, and the postings are monitored by the Fox team at Microsoft.
