A nice way to export data from VFP to SQL is to simply generate the SQL INSERT commands into a text file (TEXT..ENDTEXT could be handy). It's nice because you can do validation on the fields for errors. For example, checking for invalid dates. Also, if a field is Empty() then maybe you could write a NULL. Make sure you write a 'GO' every 100 records or so. -- Paul _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
