Take the following SQL in VFP 7:

SELECT SYS(15,m.euroansi,Ville) AS City,UPPER(SYS(15,m.euroansi,Ville)) AS City2,;
 COUNT(*) AS Compteur FROM Member WHERE Member.NoPays=lnCountry;
 ORDER BY 3 DESCENDING GROUP BY 2 INTO CURSOR Temp

How can I make this one compliant with ANSI SQL in VFP 8?

I adapted so far over 20 SQL that I had but this one is really something. Anyone knows how to do it? The problem here is that we have to keep two string values. One is the city without accented characters and the second one is the city in upper case which is one for the group by. Both has to be kept from the original SQL as otherwise we will loose the original state of the city as per its casing. But, as the new ANSI format in VFP 8 doesn't like it, we have to adapt this SQL. If anyone knows how to do it, it'll be appreciated.
