Microsoft Visual FoxPro: Programmer's Guide

Nice Vest, Nice Price

I have this book. It's on my desktop on the time. Lots of concepts still applies to Visual FoxPro 8. Every VFP programmer should have it. I doubt Microsoft Press will release a Programmer's Guide for Visual FoxPro 8. Use this book to look up techniques, etc. Not to read cover to cover. You use it once, it pays off.

FoxPro is a very powerful database system that is easily manipulated with command lines or short text-format programs sometimes called "scripts." It is faster than Access for people who learn the FoxPro language.

I am currently using this book at my new job. I was previously exposed to FoxPro 2.6 and then Visual FoxPro, but I never learned to program in it. It is very confusing to the average person who may little to no knowledge of basic programming principles. I see why the "Dummies" series is so popular.....definitely not for beginners!
