>Thanks ED, I have arise with some doubts based on your answer:

ADO is the object-oriented successor to ODBC; it provides a significantly richer interface than DAO/RDO did via ODBC to other app language environments. You might want to start with John Petersen's ADO JumpStart whitepaper in the articles section of UT.

>Upsizing is not a concern, since will be for new development, just read current progress tables and connect to other db maybe sqlserver, or keep the data in progress and work with vfp, what do you think about this, AFAIK from VFP tp any backend DB you can only work with RV's and SQLPT ?

I think you need to read about ADO, and plan to switch very rapidly to VFP8 for the added functionality offered to different backends without traditional connection mechanisms using the CursorAdapter class.
