It's as much a disservice to only present a positive image of Foxpro as it would be only to present a negative one. Would I encourage anyone to start using Foxpro as their primary development language? No. Do I believe that it is a valuable tool that has basically supported me for the past 13 years? Yes. It is a great language and tool, but it is not the future and unfortunately for some of us the future matters a great deal.

Do you believe that Foxpro is the only language capable of strong data manipulation? Or that SQL Server does not handle data well? I love Foxpro, but I could not in all honesty recommend that someone just starting out use it as their primary tool. Nor would I recommend someone move from another visual language to it. That is not the future. Just because JVP takes a lot of heat for not having practical data to back up his claims doesn't necessarily mean he's that far off base. Our own shop is looking to move to another technolody in the next couple years. I will use Foxpro as long as it is practical for me, but I'm also starting to learn VB.Net and ASP.Net. Just in case, you know...
