>>I too have seen the videos about APPX (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/APPX). It will have full support for Win32 applications because it will also include all Win32 APIs. That is really good news. It implies that we are now able to migrate in a slow pace. All our current applications can be run as Appx and be sold in the Windows Store. And future developments can be done either in VFP or with the help of other languages/platforms or a mix. In theory, there's no need to convert anything. That was a different story when we went from FPD to FPW to VFP.

>>So, I side with Tore Bleken that we can be sure that our apps will work till at least 2030 and that we'll even be able to use the Development Environment and the language to develop new stuff. And VFP is still among the fastest dbms'es.

You're right:

That's amazing. Microsoft see Windows Store is so weak and that would be a good attack. Rent my applications with Store... $-)
