>I think Bill Gates summed it up best when he said "We don't anticipate any growth in the dBase market".
>That was the impetus behind VFP3. Corner the dBase market. There hasn't been a dBase market for many years.

Why bother spending all the time and effort to make an OPP version. Why not just enhance it as a procedure language?

>It was a heady time at Flash in those days. We had the alpha of VFP3 (still called Foxpro for Windows 3.0 at that time), and at the same time Borland was trying to get us interested in their early work on dBase for Windows, which was nowhere near as far along. Each tried to pump us for information about the other. LOL

No dis to YAG, but the Codebook framework was one of the most confusing things I've ever read.
