>I can't remember where I read this but sometime back I read an article that there will be a version of Foxpro that can run under Linux. Has anyone else read anything on that ? There's been a product call Recital that's pretty much the same as older version of Fox. Anything new on the horizon ?

It seems that Microsoft doesn't have any plans to port to other operating systems.

Recital seems to be some sort of FoxPro, not VFP, clone. I think they have plans for a VFP clone - better check their homepage for up-to-date information.

Some people managed to run VFP on Linux, using WINE. The licensing is doubtful - you might need a license of VFP for each user.
