>What can I show managment that will help explain the power of VFP and it's rapid IDE for data-centric applications?

Hi Randy,

I haven't read the Chatter stuff so I don't know if anyone has referred you to any of the following two sources.

You might be interested in some materials w00dy Wondzinski has assembled in his public folders over at ftp://ftp.prolib.de/public/Why_VFP/. He's got all kinds of public domain stuff over there - a resource that rivals the UT downloads.

There are also some comments at http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~VFPMarketing~VFP.
