    VFP-64Bit

    The developer for VFP-64 does seem to be making an earnest effort. He has multiple updates in 2017. There are advantages of using 64-bit software especially if you deal with high OLTP or huge databases. If you will only ever be using small to medium sized databases I concur the 32-bit should...

    Which Version?

    xwb, Thanks for the detailed response. 2015: Easiest to support Could you please elaborate on that. I guess I am asking for a compelling reason to use that version over the others. Thanks again, Michael

    Which Version?

    Hello, I've been trying to decide which version of .Net ramp up on there are so many and just going with the latest might not always be the wisest choice. The contenders seem to be 2008, 2010,2013 and 2015? Some preferred criteria: Easiest to support. Have a responsive unbloated IDE. Have a...

    Post Visual Studio\.Net

    Hello, What is the next big Microsoft thing after Visual Studio\.Net? If there is nothing on the radar to replace Visual Studio\.Net what version of Visual Studio should one invest in that can create applications for Windows 7 to Windows 10? Thanks, Michael

    64-Bit VFP

    Lets reach out to him. Let him know there is a considerable US demographic that sees it potential. Plug him into tek-tips etc. Maybe even create a tek-tips VFP10 forum if it warrants it and can be useful. I'd do it but I'm not as deep in my VFP knowledge as many of you. I would definitely...

    64-Bit VFP

    I am leaving open the possibility that this could turn into something cool. Yes there are changes that need to happen before we all jump in but nice to know there is some new FP development going on. If we and others support him who knows where this could go. Thanks, Michael42

    OCI Driver for VB6

    Hello, I'd like to connect to modern Oracle databases (11g\12c) using VB6 without ODBC. Is there an OCI driver or the like available for VB6? EDIT: OLEDB would be OK for me...as long as I dont need to use ODBC. If this can work, does anyone have a snippet of connection to Oracle 12c using...

    64-Bit VFP

    Hello, Is there a 64-bit version of Visual Foxpro available? If not, is there an OCI driver for Foxpro to connect to modern Oracle databases? Thanks, Michael42

    Has anybody noticed the significance ... ?.

    Same here: dbase III+, Foxbase, Foxpro, Clipper... Where do we go from here though? What can you recommend as the best choice for the future of xBase? Thanks, Michael42

    VBScript, HTAs, ODBC and 64-Bit Windows

    Thanks for the posts. That makes this much clearer. Wish VBscript had a different way to get to Oracle data besides ODBC. When it was JUST 32-bit it was interesting enough. An Oracle OCI driver that worked with VBscript would crazy great. Yep I am familiar with Oracle's ODP\.Net\VB client...

    Best Python GUI for Windows Apps

    Hello, While Python for Windows comes with Tkinter there is one control type it cannot do out-of-the-box...a Grid type control (like a VB grid control that is - AKA "Table View" to some). Maybe it can and I dont know how? Otherwise Tkinter meets most my needs. My Python GUI needs are modest...

    VBScript, HTAs, ODBC and 64-Bit Windows

    Hello, 1. Is VBScript on Windows 2008 RS 64-bit run as 64-bit applications? 2. What ODBC Data source Admin version should I use for a VBScript (the 32 or 64 bit)? I have drivers installed for both for Oracle. Thus far all my VB6 apps (using the 32bit ODBC) are working fine but not some new...
