Microsoft has not, at least to my knowledge, released any of their old Fox software into the public domain or released it as FreeWare. Even if they don't sell nor support it they still contain full copyright on their software. Until they do so, I would suggest purchasing a valid VFP license for every copy you plan on using just to be safe.


Sounds reasonable to me... :)
