>I have multi-user POS project 10-20 users want to use the VFP frontend but am concerned about the VFP DataBase DBF's being up to the job dealing with the backend and if so the preferred way of storing the DBF's on a server for a multi-user environment(FileShares etc.) or if using a Free DBMS like SapDB, PostGreSql, or MySQL is a better solution.
Hi Aaron
I worked a couple of years ago on a VFP project which had more than 200 concurrent users. Reliability and performance were not an issue. VFP is more than capable of handling the size of project that you are describing, what matters more is the design and implementation. As you know, the best tool in the world cannot make up for bad design <s>
