I normally don’t post political things on this blog, tending to keep this blog technical in nature but … my friend is running for congress! How can I not post about it?!?
Kevin Ragsdale, FoxForward “Best Presenter” winner, is running for congress. His top priority just happens to be my top priority for this election: our [...]
I’m a few minutes early, but not by much. Unfortunately, there won’t be a FF08, so that means that you *must* get to SWFox to satisfy your VFP addiction. I’m sure that the SWFox gang will put on another great show this year.
I’ve been putting off this official announcement for a while now. It is my unpleasant task of announcing that I won’t be hosting FoxForward in 2008, and I don’t have plans for another one.
I am very proud of FoxForward, and I am awe struck by the talented speakers that presented at the conference. [...]
There Will Be A VFP 10!

The long awaited, and long overdue Sedna has been released for Visual Foxpro. Sedna is a tool kit with some improvements to VFP, however most of the improvements deal with increasing the ease of VFP to talk to .NET and to ease .NET to talk to VFP. They’ve always been able to talk [...]
When transitioning from one language to another, there’s always an awkward time where you’re thinking like the old language, and struggling with the new. In the past it has been of help to create functions in the new language to help the transition process. Eventually the “transition” function set is abandoned for the [...]
I’m presenting my FoxForward sessions (condensed) at the AFUG meeting tonight. This is a brand new location for us at KC Pit BBQ but it sounds great: food, drink, private room for the presentation, wireless Internet. If they serve Mt. Dew, I’m set!
I’m nervous about the presentation. I learned yesterday that I’m presenting so I [...]
I wish I could be there. It’s looking like a great (and popular) conference. There’s still time to register. Expand your knowledge of Foxpro and other technologies. Trust me. It’ll be worth it.
