JVP:
You deal realize that all data in Fox is local - at least as far as DBF's are concerned.... As far as security, it is fairly common sense to know that security of data is a major issue. Yes I deal realise these two truisms. But they do not justify your assertion about security that
it goes without saying that Fox cannot address that need."JVP:
But...if you are using SQL Server, then indeed, VFP can work with remote data.Doesn't that contradict your earlier assertion that I asked you to justify- namely "
security is an issue that is - more often than not - a real concern and a requirement. And, it goes without saying that Fox cannot address that need." (my emphasis)Are you retracting your earlier statement? If so, that is appreciated and we can leave it there.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
