PostgreSQL $0.00 license fees. Nothing funny about that! If Sybase Advantage marketing folks just stuck to the license fees for the financials they would have done well enough for most folks, but to bring in training & deployment costs, etc., shows they are not trying to hide anything up their sleeves. I have had some nice eChats with these folks, and truly hope they get a toe-hold into the VFP world. But, for me PostgreSQL has been doing just fine with no license fees, and little grief with coding and implementation. Yet I still use native VFP databases anywhere I can do so.
