I am wondering why you want an alternative to VFP. It's not dead yet despite

the marketing , lies I think " of Servoy. 2015 isnt it before its dropped.

Anyway what makes Servoy any better than VFP. It's still an unknown as far

as clients are concerned.

Also Ken is not on the team. He is just a marketing gimmick.

Don't get me wrong, I have not tried it and due to the costs am unlikely to.

So I don't know what it is like for a programmer. Is it better than VFP or

just getting caught up with the marketing.

Hey Alan,

I'm glad you brought up Servoy - as I was going to suggest it here. The

only reason I was going to do this - is because the key guy on the

Servoy team (Ken Levy) recently e-mailed me (a bit like a sales pitch)

at my company e-mail here where I work by day. (Although - when I wrote

back to him - he actually did NOT Respond back to me - which I did NOT

take as a GOOD Sign - but, instead - proceeded to add me to his Mailing

list - and now I am getting Servoy Newsletter updates!)

So - how do YOU Find Servoy? You say you seem to like it. Is it a direct

replacement for FoxPro? Is it basically FoxPro coding? Or - is it

completely different than FoxPro???
