I got away from the NC drivers a long time ago. Currently using 17 for pretty 
much everything.

Subject: Re: SQL Server 17 - ODBC or Native Client?

Frank,

With SPT, there is no big feature difference between NC and recent ODBC 
drivers. If you're using NC, you can safely migrate to the more recent drivers.

You may find bigger differences between the old "SQL Server" driver and the 
following versions because of the way they handle SQL datatypes, and how they 
are mapped into VFP. But if you're already using NC then you won't face new 
issues.
