Gene,
So what are these utilities that are so indespensible?
I'm sure that there are equivalents available... let's find them for you.

Hello Gene,
Xojo is a development tool that is very similar to Visual Foxpro and
Visual Basic. Just updated. You might be able to easily get your
Microsoft Basic programs ported over to something that is supported.
The Xojo IDE is free. You would only need to pay for a license if you
If you don't want to use the fox editor, I would suggest Notepad++. I
use it for xml and general file viewing. It has some great features -
possibly the best feature is that it is free.

Gene:
BASIC was my first computer language, mid-'70s, PDP-4 and a Commodore
VIC-20. Used it for many years before I went pro, writing BASIC on WANG
2200 microcomputers.
You may want to try FreeBASIC, which claims high compatibility and the
ability to compile 32-bit executables:
I use my text editor for way more than programming - notes, to-do lists,
changelogs, etc. etc.
For the last 4-5 years I've been using EditPad Pro, from Jan Goyvaerts' Just
Great Software, and it is in fact 'just great'. Syntax highlighting knows a
ton of languages, including VFP and HTML.

Well, they are becoming rare. RS-232C, powered by an 8250 or a 16550... I

I still support software written for dos with foxpro written in 1980, there
are adapters for serial and Centronics via usb so they are not dead.
