>>Technically no, but if no one else is going to be using it at work while you're at home, then it's probably ok. At least, ethically, you're in the clear.

Come on Dave...you're kidding right?

Like I said..technically no. And if you had the time, you could uninstall foxpro at the office and install it at home each time you needed to and uninstall it at home prior to returning to the office and reinstall it. But, if the programmer/consultant/user of the work machine is the ONLY one who uses foxpro then the spirit of the license agreement is kept in tact without having to waste time installing and uninstalling. Truthfully, I'm not sure how Microsoft interprets its licenses. I have, however, spoken with other software companies that support this practice.

I welcome anyone from MS to offer an opinion on this...
