-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The information in this article applies to:

- Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 6.0 
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------

SYMPTOMS
========

When creating a remote view though the View Designer, if a join condition is
specified in the Join Condition Dialog box, the join condition is specified as a
filter rather than a join.

RESOLUTION
==========

If you desire to use the Join syntax, you should use the Join tab to specify
your join condition. You can also use the CREATE SQL VIEW command to create the
remote view.

STATUS
======

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION
================

Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------

1. Create a remote view though the View Designer.

2. Add two related tables, and note that the Join Condition dialog box is
  displayed.

3. Create a join in that dialog and close the dialog.

4. Click the Join tab in the View Designer, and note that there is no join
  specified there.

5. Click the Filter tab in the View Designer. Note that there is a filter
  entered that matches the join condition specified in the Join Condition
  dialog box.
