You can retrieve data from local and remote data sources by creating local and remote views, respectively. Local views use Visual FoxPro SQL syntax to select information from tables or views stored locally on your computer. Remote views use the SQL syntax of the remote data source to retrieve information from tables in the data source, which is typically an ODBC data source. For local views, you can also retrieve data from Visual FoxPro and remote ODBC data sources for local views by adding remote views to local views.
