>>I'm not arguing the fact that VFP is truely an xBase language. I'm saying, let's not market it that way. As I said, xBase has a meaning of old, obsolete, outdated. If we continue to market VFP as an xBase product, it will only appeal to xBase developers, and we will continue to see it's market share erode, thus causing the long discussed death of FoxPro to become a reality.

Certainly I'd take issue with the statement limiting what it can be used to develop, but not the xBase part. High level languages are almost in a constant state of evolution. I think that properly marketed (pointing out all the capabilities of the language), the use of the term is moot.
