Yes. But a short lived tool. The advantage of VFP as a datacentric tool is no longer far ahead of its competitors, VS2005+frameworks to be specific. And I've heard that the next VS even more appealing when it comes to datacentric apps.

>>I downloaded the promotional video of VFP and I would say it's a very creative stuff. But what's the point of promoting VFP yet? For me, I would rather learn the new stuff of the new technologies rather than learning the new stuff in VFP - the mature, stable and proven datacentric tool. But, I want futuristic tool not just a tool until 2015 because at that time, my kids shall start doing programming and I can't teach them this mature, stable and proven VFP tool because it is no longer available in the school lab. Continuity is the name of the game eh...
