Dave Summers,
I have not looked into what I want to used yet, But I have thought about Delphi, Oracle, SAP, Peoplesoft or (Yuck, Powerbuilder). But I do know if I have to use a SQL engine it will be MySQL from now on. MSSQL can take a Long Walk off a short board.
I've heard of a new Open Source Database application that uses DBF type files, but I have also heard that MS is putting out ("CodePage" spelling may not be right) which is a 32bit DBF type open souce application.
Rumor has it that German's and Aussie's are pissed because VFP is so large in those 2 countries that someone is trying to purchase the VFP code from MS.
So we may have a 3rd party VFP app from overseas soon.
