I am a psychotherapist, who learned Foxpro 2.6 in order to
develop a patient, managed health care/insurance tracking and billing program for 8+ therapist on our staff. The Private Practice program runs on a Windows peer-to-peer network. All of our billing is done with paper bills/forms. We need to migrate to a billing system that allows for electronic billing. I love the power and flexibility of writing your own program, however, I am trying to figure out whether to by a canned program or learn a more contemporary DBMS.
If I was to proceed with a later edition of Foxpro, which would you suggest? In terms of ease to migrate existing databases (10 different databases)? In terms of ease of learning a new program? In terms of meeting the needs briefly described above? Any insight would prove helpful.
