FoxPro is a great product that is frozen in time as well as features. So much has changed in business applications that you would really need to get the app for free to overcome the limitations. Mobile Technology today is probably #1. Dealing with data in OLAP as well as cubes Having multiple types of input documents that create transactions in your system. Ability to publish data to Excel and tweak things and excel republish it back to the raw data. Not to mention security problem from antivirus vendors. Any IT person at a potential new client that cannot receive a test, new purchase or update from you and needing to be told how to screw with their AV so your app works. Yeah that is a doozy. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Analyst Ring Container Technology Oakland TN 901.246-0159 cell --- StripMime Report -- processed MIME parts --- multipart/alternative text/plain (text body -- kept) text/html --- _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://mail.leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/cajidmyj_admhxh4strccbg0bsgksma-kpz1w3brdq70fx2p...@mail.gmail.com ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
