The VFP9-MySQL solutions I've got out there now working will not be affected, imo, by the acquisition by Oracle. They cannot, imo, put anything into place that would ill-affect my existing solutions. I may not be able to upgrade for whatever personal/business reason moving forward, but what works today should still work tomorrow and the day after that, etc etc, imo. Right? Because I've designed with the n-tier approach, I'm going to take one of my solutions and see if I can get the PostgreSQL backend solution as well. The only place I'd need to change things would be where there's MySQL-specific SQL that doesn't work the same in PostgreSQL.
