  Visual FoxPro - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Visual FoxPro is a data-centric object-oriented and procedural programming language produced by Microsoft.
FoxPro is a member of the class of languages commonly referred to as "xBase" languages, which have syntax based on the dBase programming language.
Visual FoxPro, commonly abbreviated as VFP, is typically viewed by the general public as being merely a Database Management System (DBMS).

 Microsoft Visual Studio - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Visual Studio 6.0 was the last version to include Visual Basic as most VB programmers knew it; subsequent versions would include a quite different version of VB based on.NET.
Programs developed using.NET are not compiled to machine language (like C++ is, for example) but instead to a format called MSIL or CIL.
Programs compiled into MSIL can be executed only on platforms which have an implementation of Common Language Infrastructure.

 Why VFP   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-24)
Visual FoxPro (VFP) is the most powerful mid-size PC database management system on the market.
The capacity of the database is extremely large and its native programming language is designed specifically to optimize and work with the database.
Many other database management systems are built with stringent limits or capacities and tied to a programming language that was designed for general programming, not the specific database management system.

 Visual FoxPro 9.0: Still Here, Still Relevant
Further, because of its ability to run on cheaper, older hardware, run legacy code, and still do everything a modern programming language is expected to do, it will remain the product of choice for renegade workgroups, small resource-constrained offices, independent software developers, and many governments and government-run agencies.
These programs became applications—and a new kind of application developer was born, the bandit, renegade, ad-hoc developer.
For FoxPro developers, Fox has simply been a safe application development path; your investment in the technology was not compromised by innovations made by the vendor.

 .NET for Visual FoxPro Developers - Chapter 1
When you were first learning Visual FoxPro, it probably took you a while to discover all of these commands (and maybe you haven’t found them all yet!).
Since the vast majority of Visual FoxPro developers using.NET will choose either Visual Basic.NET or C# as their software development language, this book concentrates on these two languages, providing examples in each and information that can help you decide which language is right for you.
Although “Visual C#.NET” is the “official” name of the language, you almost always see it referred to as simply “C#” (pronounced C sharp), and this is the convention I use in this book.
