Hi Antonio.

>I would like to write my aplication in VFP language and use Borland Interbase as the database. Is this solution better than using VFP database?

You can certainly do that. There's an ODBC driver for Interbase, so you can either use SQL passthrough functions or remote views to access and update the Interbase data.

That said, given a choice, you're better off using native VFP data. Performance will be much better. In testing I've done, Interbase sucks when it comes to joining tables (ie. SELECT somefields FROM sametable JOIN someothertable ...), plus it's just not as fast as VFP is for any kind of access.
