Hi all
There is a document in Ed's download area giving concordances between VFP(6) and VB6. I am looking for something similar showing concordances between VFP and TSQL. Has anybody come across such an animal?
Many thanks
Paul Newton
Mike Lewis has a small article here: http://www.ml-consult.co.uk/foxst-38.htm
... but it is only a cursory review.
In addition I usually use the thought process that anything you use in VFP SQL you can do directly in TSQL apart from the pre VFP9 availability of including fields in an aggregated SQL select statement that aren't included in the Group by and order by clauses.
As for TSQL Functions, they are mostly completely different unless you write your own "VFP Equivalent functions" in native TSQL which I did many moons ago.
A great bonus of TSQL is that you don't need to pad out character select expressions as you do in VFP where the first character select of a field dictates the length of the selected SQL field - this used to bite me all the time!!!

Too bad they never presented SPROCs that you write once in SQL and reuse anytime you need to get THAT DATA in your app.
Pass params instead of statements.
Each time your statement is presented to SQL Server it needs a plan for the server to do the best job for processing. Inserting master and child records to tables that have a lot of activity benefit from a SPROC being preprocessed in the plan compared to getting and insert into ..... statement 150 times a day.
