>I have not seen or used Recital since about 1995. At the time it was a very good independent product. It run most dBASE and FoxBase code in various versions of Unix. I do not know what they do now, but if it is the same people that run it, it should be a decent product.

It looks/sounds pretty good. Where is 'catch 22' here ?
Do they charge per database deployed or something like that ?

I saw that they hv bypass for 2bg limit;
If they have even just a simmilar OOP model to VFP (multiple inheritance, session object etc) then in my case It would hv been easiest possible
conversion in case something bad happen to VFP after Vista.

BTW my VFP6 app worked just fine under Vista, aldough it does look odd
in Vista world of see-trough and (annoying) funny-popping-out windows.
I remember back in DOS days some clipper and FPD apps with funny screen appearances; Rotating, sound making, appearing from down left corner, from top above etc. - are all effects which end up being annoying on a long run.
I guess meny people will simply keep Vista 'classic' ;)

As for Recital9, aldough I hv no plans of leaving VFP in any near future,
it is defenetely good thing to know that there is something simillar to VFP growing and progressing out there :)
