Thanks for the info on the open source Craig.

VFP itself will never be open source as Microsoft will not release the source code. What *is* open source is all the utility programs, and the VFP code that is part of VFP. Look at http://vfpx.codeplex.com.

>>Hi Craig,

>>I went to the VFP section of the MSDN site and clicked a link that took me to store.microsoft.com, and started the checkout process. It looks like it would have let me complete the sale ($649!). It also looks like this is independent of an MSDN subscription? The vfp 'upgrade' was out of stock. I wonder how long before VFP itself will be out of stock?

>>I am not that well versed in the latest efforts of the VFP community, but my understanding is that there was some sort of effort underway to make VFP open source. Where does that stand?

>>As an AccountMate reseller, I can't just have my own development copy of VFP. I need to have a copy on my client's servers or local machines so I can create utility routines, fix data, etc. For existing customers I'm covered, but how do I handle a new customer?
