My 1 April yesterday story at Russian fox site

Good news comes from MS VFP Dev team today.
SQL syntax of SQL select was made fully reversible.
Instead of select .. from … where … group by … into cursor
We also can write
from cursor … group by … where into select
All of us, who do cashing programs, will understand the goal
of this really good changes.
When we get cursor with summary results, our user likes to edit
this result. They surprised that their changes in sum do not lead to changes in
initial data. New syntax resolve this tiny problem.
Roughly saying MS resolved famous math inverse problem
Starting from this day we can split any result sum on the components
in the unique way .
To get this new option in VFP you don’t do anything, because it was
always in all services packs, but starts to work only from today.
Till this day it was automatically checked for the long time
This automatic check allowed avoiding spending money on better testers
Some of the members of our comunity imidiatly started to try new SQL option
