I think your best option would be LLFF. Open the file, use fseek() to go to the end, and then search backwards. How to search, I am not so sure - perhaps reading a byte at a time, or perhaps more efficient, reading something like the last 100 bytes, and using regular VFP functions to see whether there is a CR/LF combination.
To delete the last line, you can change the filesize. If there is sensitive data, you may want to overwrite it with spaces first.
