>HI all,
>I do not know if this is the correct place to generate this therad....hoping that the sysops....(or what ever we call the deciders these days) to put it in its correct place. The reason I do not know, is as follows.
>
>1) a VB project handed over to me to look into and understad
>2) the same project also has c++ DLL's
>3) the data of above stores on a SQL 7 Server.
>
>SO I do not know where to post this, so here goes....I have done very little with the above mentioned software, and I would like to keep it that way.....if I can, my main concern is towards SQL tables, as this is where the data is stored, and I would like to beable to pull data from the SQL server with in VFP. Where do I start?
>
>The VB and C++ can come later, as the app that is used at the moment, is working very well, except the reports it generates these are not working correctly. So I would rather use a tool I know (VFP), than try to use VB or SQL server, as I do not know either off these products.
>
>With respect to SQL, how can I find out how the tables relate to each other? and how do I connect to the tables with VFP. Can I set up my home computer as a test site with SQL tables, if I can how? What do I need to install to beable to copy the tables from the server to my own PC to play around with? and make VFP connect?
