VB.NET will work nicely with Visual FoxPro as a database. VFP is quite powerful, and light on its feet to boot. If you're going to be distributing your app, VFP is easier on that front as well.

One thing's for sure—Oracle's out. For your POS app, that'd be like shooting a squirrel with a shotgun <g>

You might want to consider asking this same question in one of the VFP sections. You're sure to get a lot of good discussion :)


>Hello, my name is Nancy Ramirez I am going to develop to a point of sale with visual basic.net, however I don´t know what database use, because that point of sale is going to work in each branch of way (monousuary) and that same point of sale from a server (for several users). Some friends have recommended to me to use oracle or pervasive. but If I use oracle , I should have a license for each branch?
