Hi,
First, there is no way to hide the connection if you're using RV.
But, Mr. Vlad just gave me some hints on this issue a week ago. You can create all database items when program start programmtically. That is, all connection, RV, etc.. And delete it when application is closing. Of course, the .DBC should be unique in every instance.
Second approach which I'm doing is to include the DBC in EXE and encypted it. Then, you don't need to distribute the DBC to user.
But you can't modify the database propreities in run-time.
Third, using VFP 7, table opening can be specified the connection details. Please read the VFP7 doc.
