visit http://www.winehq.org/ and be sure to vote for VFP - I have instructions if you need them.

If your app is on a Win desktop, you can connect using vfp SQLCONNECT(), providing the MySQL ODBC driver is installed and routed, then you can retrieve data using vfp SQLEXEC().

Fo the most part - yes - providing you have wine. Some components have not been addressed. There may be EULA considerations

Don't see why not?
