Arthur,

Just to clarify the OLD 'wish' a bit...

the intention was to have **any** accesses to designated tables to be done at the server end, thus including SQL statements that involved such tables.

By the way, there is another wish in the list, by someone else, asking that VFP be made able to handle SQL Server tables in exactly the same manner as VFP tables are handled. You ight find that one interesting too. I know that it was submitted NEAR the same time as I did mine.

Cheers
