They should take into consideration that if developers will still continue to use Foxpro, they (developers) unwittingly become walking salesmen for MS since their customers will be forced to use Windows and most probably, SQL Server as well. If VFP sales is low, why not use it instead as an instrument to milk the cash cow (which is Windows) rather than terminate the best data-centric product there is.

Hi Dale,

It's been a while since I saw your last post here. Glad to see you back in the circulation. It's a pity I was not able to meet you last Dec 2006. Anyway hope all is well with you and your family.

Stay safe,
Erik Gomez
