Importing into the Data Dictionary

Greetings!

I noticed while using the Setup Wizard that the Display Name that is stored in VFP table definitions is not ported over to FoxFire!.  Is this by design?  If so, it would sure help those of us who use Stonefield Database Toolkit to design our databases if you would import this value as the caption to the field.  Otherwise, we have to change each and every field capture during the Report Set build process.

Any plans to import directly from Stonefield?

Thanks!

Re: Importing into the Data Dictionary
When using the Setup Wizard, how are you choosing your tables to import?

If you choose the DBC, it should be using the Display Name.

If you choose DBCX and then choose the Stonefield DBCX meta data file, it will bring over the display field name appropriately.

Other DBCX vendors, such as F1 Technologies' FoxExpress, are also supported.
