Yes, but I wouldn't recommend it. SQL Server will do the work on the back end, and only pass back what you need: VFP will try to read the entire table.

That said, I just got this to work:

lnHandle = SQLSTRINGCONNECT("DRIVER=Microsoft Visual FoxPro Driver;SourceType=DBF;SourceDB=\\xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx\fox")
SQLEXEC(lnHandle, "SELECT * FROM Labels")

where I had previously set "fox" as the web directory name for the VFP home directory.

You should probably read Rick Strahl's Internet enabling Visual FoxPro applications for more details.
