"wanted to replace Visual FoxPro with a recognized and widely accepted platform."

"--we were considering a web wrapper around the FoxPro application, probably using the SOAP ToolKit along with VB 6 COM DLLs. That would have taken at least twice as long to build—and would have left us with our original code, based on a dated technology. Instead, using the .NET Framework, we were able to write reusable components, which will save us time in future versions.”

".NET Framework. It's a truly incredible toolset."


Obviously they have been only a "Sunday user" of FoxPro but anyhow it seems to me that MS is digging a hole under the foxpro. Sad.
