>Hello all,
>I've been doing business apps with Foxpro since Fox-DOS, usually as a side tool, sometimes as a main tool. My learning pace dropped off around when Visual was released, tho I currently use v 6.0 and take (limited) advantage of the product's object orientation. At this time Fox is my main development tool.
>Knowing that I'm significantly behind current developments, I'm wondering what others would recommend as the most cost-effective thing to do in the short run to move closer to state of the art (as an independent, conference time and travel = money). I see a few things out there at the moment:
>--devcon conference
>--great lakes conference
>--books (Heinkenwerke(?))
>--training videos
>
>Any input appreciated, folks.

Everything depend on you as a mental ability.
If you learn better reading books may be most cost effective way will be to buy all books issued by www.hentzenwerke.com.
If you learn better discussing some problems go to Great Lakes Conference
if you learn better in traditional way listening explanation of lecturer get cource in www.takenote.com
Good luck
