In one of the application we are about to put in production, the switch to SQL Server will see the light of day soon. It is just a question of licence where VFP has a great advantage over SQL Server.


I hope you are not thinking of charging me consultation fees :)

It's enlighting to not that VFP back-end is STILL used for mission critical applications. Perception is Dbf=data curruption.

Our next version of Accounting software will just have Windows GUI & Windows printing ( Laser printer support ) & support for dbf/server storage. No Web interface, no mobile support, no PDA support.

Do you think VFP would be a good choice ?

Can you also elobrate on "Because its maintenance in regards to the way I do it is much faster." ( Please )
