Microsoft Visual FoxPro 9.0

With its local cursor engine, tight coupling between language and data, and powerful features, Visual FoxPro 9.0 is a great tool for building database solutions of all sizes. Its data-centric, object-oriented language offers developers a robust set of tools for building database applications for the desktop, client-server environments, or the Web. Developers will have the necessary tools to manage data—from organizing tables of information, running queries, and creating an integrated relational database management system (DBMS) to programming a fully-developed data management application for end users.

XML Web services created with Visual FoxPro 9.0 can be consumed by XML Web service clients of Visual Studio .NET 2003 including ASP.NET, and XML Web services created with Visual Studio .NET 2003 and any other standards-based XML Web service can be consumed by Visual FoxPro 9.0.
