Solution

  • Your question is not clear. That piece of code you supplied is just a query done against a VFP table\cursor in your local. It has nothing to do with an SQL server query. Here is a sample doing an SQL server query using sample Northwind database:

    LOCAL lnHandle, lcCountry
lnHandle = SQLSTRINGCONNECT("Driver={SQL Server Native Client 11.0};Server=.;Database=Northwind;Trusted_Connection=yes")

lcCountry = "USA"
SQLEXEC(m.lnHandle, "Select * from Customers where Country = ?m.lcCountry", "crsCustomers")

SQLDISCONNECT(m.lnHandle)

SELECT crsCustomers
browse

    This is an SPT query. There is also CursorAdapter, in which you could use ODBC or OLEDB.

    Please explain what you are really asking if that wasn't what you meant.
