Why not just use the VFP functions for .NET that Kamal and Flash put out there over 5 years ago? For folks that want the similarity, doesn't that solve the issue?There's a big difference between a rewrite using some similar commands and the ability to compile existing work in NET.
And the compiler comes with a local data engine that (I'm told anecdotally) manages autospanning to disk.
I'm not aware of *any* current alternative that offers these attributes.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
