Hi,

>I heard that a tool would be under development to replace VFP

There are two that I'm aware of:

Guineu (my own one) is a replacement for the VFP runtime with additional features and support of .NET interaction. It's already running on Windows, PDAs and Mono. I plan to start with the beta this week. Some screen shots are available at http://www.foxpert.com/KnowlBits_200705.htm.

The other one is the .NET Compiler from Etecnologia. Details on http://www.etecnologia.net.
