VFP itself has a limitation of 10 tables, or 9 joins, per SQL Select statement. I suppose this limit would apply to queries made through the ODBC driver also. You can experiment by paring it down to 9 joins to see if that is indeed the case.

When I send the SELECT statement to the ODBC driver, I get an error from the driver stating "Too many subqueries". Is there a limit as to how many joins I can have in the query? Does the limit also exist in the OLE DB provider?
