>Hi All,

>A large Corporate Client of mine was prepared to update a VFP 9 App until they went on Microsoft's VFP Main page: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/vfoxpro/bb190225.aspx and got scared by the statement:

>"Note that Visual FoxPro 9.0 is the last version and was published in 2007. For a great solution for building modern business applications, take a look at LightSwitch in Visual Studio 2012"

>which they interpreted this as "Microsoft is telling us to use another product."

>So we have another case of FUD - Fear, Uncertainy Doubt..So I have to reassure them..

>Any articles around to make the business case for VFP?

>BTW, Already own the wonderful Henztenwerke Book: The Business Case for Moving (Some) Business Applications to VFP in 2013 - Highly Recommended

Your advice to them should be to find an alternative to VFP., VFP is dead and continuing to use it doesn't make any sense from a business perspective. Rewrite their app in C#/SQL.
