I rarely get to look at fox now. I am spending increasing amounts of time working on Dynamics CRM data migration and other Dynamics integration .People used to complain that Foxpro and Access meant amateurs developed bad systems. Dynamics CRM seems to be like that on steroids. I'm looking at a system at the moment that has lookup values for countries in the stringmap table for loading contacts and wonder of wonders they have an identical list of countries under a different name for loading organisations. Rather than use out of the box functions developers will nilly re-invent the wheel. Companies are spending millions of pound on this on this stuff when I'm confident a small team of good developers could build bespoke solutions for a fraction of the price. Why do I do it. Because more and more that seems to be where the work and money is.
