Funny to reply to myself, but in case anyone else is wondering about this issue, I found what appears to be part of the solution on the MS Knowledge base.
According to the Knowledge Base, VFP can only accept SQL strings from a SQLEXEC statement if the statement contains no strings greater than 255 characters. The article says that to create a longer SQL statement, you should concatenate smaller strings together into a larger statement.
However, that doesn't seem to help anyone sending SQL statements from ASP. I would still appreciate any thouhts. Thanks.
