Hi Ken
Doing a search for 'foxpro' or 'vfp' in the Microsoft Israel website ( www.microsoft.com/israel ), you do not see any mention of VFP. Also, VFP does not figure in the main developers page at the same site. I tried to contact them a few monthes ago and even proposed to help them with case studies or big projects i created here with VFP, but they still did not change this.
I think Israel could be an excellent market for VFP, but when i talk with the IT managers in the big companies, i always get the same answer, i.e: "VFP is an excellent tool, but we don't see here enough programmers, and they barely know VFP7 at Microsoft Israel..."
This is very frustrating for me, specially when i know you can do just about anything you can imagine in VFP, and now even more with Web Sevices...

JFYI
Hope i'll be able to make it to DevCon and see you guys...
