Visual FoxPro is the premier tool for developing robust client-server applications using a wide range of database backends. The two most popular are, perhaps, SQL Server and MySQL.

This session will show a method for rapid development of Client Server applications using Visual FoxPro. The goals of this session are

1) To highlite the differences between developing applications based on native Visual FoxPro tables and a Client Server backend,

2) To illustrate the differences between back-end environments,

3) To illustrate that development of a client server application is actually very simple and requires little extra coding knowledge beyond standard Visual Foxpro syntax.
