>I don't agree with you on this point. Lots of the concepts from VFP have made their way into the .NET tools and languages. LINQ is one example. And I'll bet that VFP has caused lots of SQL Server licenses to be sold.

I agree. With one exception, all VFP projects I've worked on since the late 90's used or were conversions to SQL Server as the back end. An excellent combination of strengths and a great improvement over VFP only solutions.

I've sold a number of SQL Server licenses because of it (depending on database scale, some are Express (free)).
