VFP database is really just a file sharing system, not a real database backend. The SP is executed on the client machine, not on the server.

You could have VFP act as a Data Server if you create a DCOM object on the server that each client must call to access the data. However, if you need this kind of architecture, my advice would be to use a real database backend, like SQL Server.
