VFP is a pretty sophisticated tool. The Fox Team are not just brainy - they have been working together for years and have a legacy understanding of the system.

I have seen some fairly elequent VFP PRG code. I have a hard time imagining the underlying code that allows VFP developers to write such eloquent script.

It would take an average guy (like me) a couple of lifetimes <g> to really get a handle on the fox engine.

You might start simple - if you're interested - and don't tell anyone <g> - you might be able to locate an old xBase engine - and crack it - just to see what it's guts look like!

>Since a months i'm using universal thread page, all this months i saw the same question, is microsoft turning off VFP? and nobody knows the end.
>Why don't we try to buy VFP source code, of course may be difficult, but, by using all people in Universal Thread may be possible, then we put available for all suscriptor that pay for it and change the marketing for the product and it will be valuated by its real power, it would be like a new free open developer tool even to use with linux, and many people can contribute to get better.
>All We in universaltread that love VFP will contribute to buy it, even we can give a little help to microsoft when they say good bye to VFP.
