Craig,

Don't mean to be picky here, but, by definition, VFP most definitely is not an interpreted language. It produces tokenized threaded p-code. An interpreter is forced to re-evaluate the source code each time the program loaded. While this does happen with macro expanision, this is the only time such occurs. I know you know this, but I just wanted to clarify the subject for those who do not.
