>If people are not aware of Foxpro's power, then they will buy what Microsoft recommends, which is Visual Studio and SQL Server, namely Visual Basic and SQL Server. It seems that Microsoft views Foxpro as a product that satisfies a niche market. Microsoft probably will never put alot of marketing behind Foxpro as long as SQL Server is in the forefront. Just think of all the companies who have bought SQL Server who really don't need it. If Microsoft advertises the strengths of Foxpro, then they will start loosing sQL Server and Visual Basic sales. It's not going to happen.
Hmmmm, maybe so , maybe not, after all, MS has announced that they will bundle MSDE with VFP 7.0. Is that better than the VFP engine, or a replacement, or "suitable alternative", so you will go to VB/SQL? lalalalalalalala
