>Where is a good inexpensive place online to buy VFP 8.0?

One good source is http://foxtoolbox.com. You can get FoxPro shirts and hats there too. :) If you obtain VFP 8.0 through MSDN Subscriptions (any level - pro, ent, univ), you will get a full copy of VFP 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, and then 9.0 right after it is released, Visual Studio (all versions), Windows, etc. Without MDSN subscriptions, it will take 6-8 weeks before the stand alone versions of VFP 9.0 are available, probably around Feb. 2005.
