>>It was probably an easy sell for the consultant to convince the mucky-mucks to move to Access - but as you pointed out a very bad decision considering the consequences.<<
So, MS VFP was replaced by MS Access, which did not do well, so it was replaced by MS SQL server and a MS front end tool.
Who is the winner, here, then?

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
