We have orders where Clients like to keep their old DBFs database, to work with Access or SQLServer.
All db quering and processing we try to move to DB, because if it is done in Client side it works slow. May be my coders are better in explaining this.

.Net data processing is slower than VFP one, that's why we are forced to find solution for this and this solution is to move all data processing in SQLServer using its instruments.
Thats why free DBFs or MDB is not an option.
