Hi Raza
What database is behind ODBC?
If you are having VFP database accessed via ODBC then speed will always be your problem. In case you deploy MS-SQL or some other database at the back then things will be improved. Also developing Client/Server apps has to be tuned for performance. So you should always request some subset of data
instead of whole table. You said that you have 100 tables ? Did you consider spliting it into more then one database? Because with all tables and views
your DBC container itself could be very 'heavy'.

Good luck :-))
