Andy Kramek told us at OzFox (I think it was Andy, might have been Mac Rubel) that the JFAST team tried porting some of the data over to SQL but they couldn't get the performance they could with pure VFP and performance is what they need ! Apparently they have a lot of military assets moving about the place..
