- hahahahaaaa...... but I can be so much more productive with filePro, and
- create so much more robust apps, there's no way in h*ll I'd switch!
- (I've used Informix, Foxbase+, and the other assorted names)
-
- But you bring out a good point ... filePro is an environment that even a
- novice can use to accomplish simple tasks ... but it also provides the
- advanced features programmers need to design complex apps ...
- Sorry, I sound like a magazine ad :-)
