ASQLHANDLES( ) Function

Stores numeric references to all active SQL connection statement handles in an array.

CREATE CURSOR - SQL Command

Creates a temporary table. Each field in the temporary table is defined with a name, type, precision, scale, null value support, and referential integrity rules. These definitions can be obtained from the command itself or from an array.

CREATE SQL VIEW Command

Displays the View Designer, allowing you to create an SQL view.

CREATE TABLE - SQL Command

Creates a table. Each new table field is defined with a name, type, precision, scale, null value support, and referential integrity rules. These definitions can be obtained from the command itself or from an array.

DELETE - SQL Command

INSERT - SQL Command

Appends a new record to the end of an existing table. The new record contains data listed in the INSERT command or from an array.

• In a Visual FoxPro program (like any other Visual FoxPro command).
  
  
• In the Query Designer.
