Whats astounding about this is that it was written by someone presumably from the database community at MS. If it had been written by someone from the XBOX team, maybe it would be understandable!

But for the internal DB community in MS to still not know about the existence of VFP, is disturbing to say the least.

This is why customers, and MS reps look at us developers like we have leprosy when we talk about using VFP to solve key business problems. Nobody, and I mean N-O-B-O-D-Y, will ever want to invest their business to a product that MS cannot even acknowledge exists. And I mean acknowledge beyond the VFP team. This is a by-product of only marketing to the VFP community, no one else will ever know about it.
