>>I would like verification that I'm not blowing smoke. We are moving from VFP to VFP/SQL server. I believe that we lose the ability to browse the database in the changeover. I thought that browses go against the idea of client server and instead the user gets a sql of a few close matches....my boss thinks our users will resist the change. Any ideas/suggestions about what to do with users that are used to a Jkey browse?
