I was discussing new projects with a client today when he asked "What's happening with Foxpro?" I know what was going through his mind, Visual Basic is in everywhere and Visual Foxpro just doesn't have a healthy profile.
Why is that? VFP seems to be a fine, useful language. Why does Microsoft not push it? Is there something wrong with it? Am I charging down a dead-end street?
I am not satisfied with the usual answers of "Oh VFP 6.0 or VFP 7.0 or whatever is on the drawing board", let's face it folks, Microsoft does not want VFP to be mainstream, they are killing it softly.
