Here is an idea...
Use only remote views..use ODBC to connect to VFP DBC. Sounds stupid right? But look at it this way, change one DSN connection and same remote views use SQL backend. Only thing you need to watch for is that when you develop the DBC, make sure your field types are compatible with SQL Server. (For example, there is no date fields, no time fields in SQL Server, just datetime fields. Soooo..when you make all your VFP tables be sure to keep this in mind).

Pretty slick, huh?
