If you are moving data from VFP into SQL Server and don't have to change the data much, the absolute fastest way is via DTS using the VFP OLE-DB driver.
I don't know if MSDE includes the DTS DLL's, but if not, I think you can install them separately on your client machines that use MSDE. Check the SQL Server BOL regarding files required and licensing. DTS has a decent object model that you could take advantage of in a very small VFP or VB loader app.
