Hi Gar:
Regarding the performance problem at the client's site, I would like to add
a few comments. Make sure VFP's internal usage of memory is optimized with
the SYS(3050) function. Make sure the VFP temp files are directed to a
local and not a network drive. Use the SYS(2023) for this task. Finally,
optimize any SELECT-SQL commands you use with the SYS(3054) function.
