>There are over 300,000 Fox developers. It is hard for me to believe that someone is not out there attempting to bridge the gap between vfp and .net and is willing to talk about . The vfp oledb data provider is not ready to participate in .net as is the JET oledb provider and the SQL data provider. UPDATE, DELETE and INSERT commands cannot be automatically generated. The visual designers cannot hook into the providers either. So it seems to me that any developer wishing to communicate with a vfp datastore is basically attemping to communicate with tables as if they were free tables, since the database schema is of no use as far as data adaption in concerned. So how does one write a custom data access class so it not only can UPDATE, INSERT and DELETE entries in a Fox or vfp backend but can also take full advantage of the Mere Mortal framework's functionality?

Neil,
You really shouldn't being using the CommandBuilder for a production anyways. I mean it is so slow, that it is great to use to get an example of the UPDATE etc.. but you shouldn't use it for production anyways. It isn't that difficult to write your own custom data access, to give you full control. I mean, if you REALLY want it, why don't you simple write it? It doesn't take a rocket scientist, i mean even a dentist could do it.
