Packed with tools for rapid application development and data access, Microsoft Visual FoxPro database management system is the only Xbase product that’s easy enough to be visual, yet powerful enough to be FoxPro®.
Microsoft FoxPro has long been the fast, powerful choice for Xbase developers. And this latest version extends that power with object orientation. The leaps forward in rapid application development, flexibility, and data access in this version make it a true member of the Microsoft Visual Tools family. So we changed the name.
Microsoft Visual FoxPro, as it’s now named, combines a visual development environment with new tools for creating solutions that integrate the Microsoft Office and Microsoft BackOffice™ families. Its flexible architecture puts your existing Xbase code to work in Windows , Windows NT™ , and Windows 95 operating systems.
Users can freely choose the operating system that best meets their needs.
