- Microsoft Visual FoxPro 6.0 and Visual Studio Installer Tutorial
This article lists the basic steps involved in creating, configuring, and building a Microsoft Windows Installer package (.msi) file with Microsoft Visual Studio Installer. Microsoft® Visual Studio® Installer is a graphical tool that simplifies the creation of application setup programs for distribution to single user or enterprise-wide desktops. Setups created with the Visual Studio Installer provide advanced capabilities such as centralized distribution for maintenance and updates, application self-repair, and powerful installation rollback facilities.
Visual Studio Installer setups are based on the new Microsoft Windows® installer technology. The Windows installer reduces the total cost of ownership (TCO) for customers by enabling them to efficiently install and configure applications.
- Visual FoxPro Tips
I have noticed some confusion in the newsgroups about using the 'm.' prefix. Using 'm.' is only needed if you have a memory variable with the same name as a field in a currently open table or view. One scenerio for this would be if you tend to use SCATTER MEMVAR and GATHER MEMVAR. You need to reference the memory variables as m.FieldName, especially if you move the record pointer in your code while referencing memory variables. Using the 'm.' prefix will prodce a slight performance hit, but for all intensvie purposes, this is not important (a few seconds more for total execution time if you reference EVERY memory variable in a large app with 'm.')
- Introduction to Client-Server Development in Visual FoxPro
In this article, I will explore the many facets of client-server development with Visual Foxpro. Please note, this article was written under the assumption that not many significant changes or enhancements were made to the Client-Server structure of Visual FoxPro version 5.0. Obviously, this article will leave out many complexities that come with programming on a server. I will try to cover the basics, and leave the reader to further explore this development technique as his/her situation merits. I will use Visual FoxPro version 3.x and Microsoft?s SQL Server version 6.x for all of my examples. However, most of these examples can be easily transposed to whatever server platform you have.

FoxPro FAQ
This FAQ was originated because there aren't very many VFP FAQ's out there. Most of the questions are basic in nature, intended to answer the common questions of beginners to VFP. That is not to say that there isn't something out here for more advanced users. In researching for this FAQ, I found a few tips and shortcuts that I had not known before. I hope you do too. This is meant to supplement all other forms of VFP support, not as a substitute.

- Survey of VFP's International Features
Many Visual FoxPro commands have international nuances. This is fully documented in the INTL Toolkit. Below is the documentation on international issues for VFP commands. Keep these things in mind as you develop your international applications. Pick the first letter of a VFP keyword, or just scroll down. This section is a compendium of VFP's international features and dependencies. It is a long and detailed section, though fortunately many of the themes are recurring.
