Rating: Summary: VFP web rocks!! Review: Although serious VFP developers invariably upgrade with each new version I'd upgrade to version 7 just for the intellisense feature alone. Other development languages have had this for years and it was sorely missed from FoxPro. To me, intellisense alone is worth the price of this upgrade not even mentioning the other other improvements and new features such as XMLToCursor, CursorToXML, OLEDB provider, and much more. Intellisense doesn't cure world hunger I know but I love it! What a time saver. Should of been in VFP long ago. Also the very first beta was astonishingly stable for a pre-release which is a good sign. If you develop with Visual FoxPro at all this is one version upgrade you will not want to wait getting.

Rating: Summary: Definitely a must have for the serious database developer. Review: Having been an early Beta Tester for VFP7 I must say that I am extremely pleased with its performance and its enhancements from previous versions.An excellent improvement on a very mature and stable OOP database development language, it is well at ease using its native data engine as well as working asa front end or middle tier for any other DBMS, from SQL Server to Oracle to MySQL. It finally brings Intellisense and an OLEDB Provider! Visual FoxPro is the only Microsoft development language that can play in any tier of an N-Tier system. It works well with all the current technologies, MTS, COM, COM+, ADO, XML, ActiveX, etc. Well worth your adding it to your programmer's toolset!
Rating: Summary: The best yet! Review: I have been working in FoxPro and Visual FoxPro for 7 years now. With each upgrade, FoxPro has only gotten better. With Web Service, IntelliSense, XML, and OLE DB, this is the best yet! I've only been working with for a few days now, but I can't wait to find out what lies in store for me. It's a programmer's dream come true.

Rating: Summary: Fox is back Review: VFP 7.0 has dramatically improved its IDE, including an awesome data driven implementation of Intellisense that is completely customizable, making it one of the best available. But thats not all, improved speed, stability, and XML support, along with the long list of language enhancements suggested by VFP users add up to make this one of the most powerful and easy to use Database tools available.
Rating: Summary: VFP web rocks!! Review: VFP has always been about speed and now this version makes it extremely easy to put that database and string processing speed to use in VFP mtdlls and XML Web Services. For rapidly developing web apps, compare the speed, robustness, and scalability of VFP 7 to anything out there(yes, Oracle too) at a fraction of the price of other solutions.
Rating: Summary: Most significant version of FoxPro since 3.0 Review: VFP7 is an outstanding product! It's capable of handling the user interface, middle-tier components, and back-end data store for enterprise applications. At the same time, it can handle the needs for the corner mom & pop grocery store. Version 7.0 is the most significant version since 3.0. With the addition of IntelliSense, OLE DB provider, interface inheritance, UI changes, and increased developer productivity, this is a must have for any serious database developer.
