They cover all the bases. But, as with any tool that tries to do everything, they still don't do database development better than Visual FoxPro 5. While VFP5 is a true database development environment with its own language and engine, those other products are programming languages with a database interface. And, as far as an engine is concerned, they're always at the mercy of another product for that, which adds complexity to their database work. They can have it! :)
