Can You explain how to create Remote view. From New in File menu, it is not activated. even I have ODBC conectivity. and Upsizing works properly. I have in 35 tables in Oracle Data type. and the Oracle database is very big. Some tables have 250 fields too.

If some of fields in foxpro were to be dropped in Oracle and some have to be created. Is it possible using that way ?
