True, I still do new apps on VFP. I tell people that MS open sourced the product. People are open to open source these days b/c of the cost savings Fox has always had that advantage. It's especially cool when you package it with MySQL.

When you think about it, almost everything but the core VFP9.EXE file is open sourced.
