>We are exploring the possibility of using Visual FoxPro to develop a client/Server application which will use Sybase SQL Anywhere as its primary data source. This unlikely combination would allow us to leverage our VFP experience ( and class libraries) and to satisfy our market's demand for a portable, scalable RDBMS.(MS-SQL Server is not portable. That eliminates VFP/SQL Server as a scalable database option for us)

I've used SQL Anywhere extensively and for a small to midrange backend requirement I don't think it can be beat. The only concern I have is that you would have to make your connections through the notoriously slow ODBC interface.
