Reader Reviews
As a new convert to VFP from clipper (on dos ack), this book did little to teach me how to use all the new powerful app building 'wizards' and whatnot. I was amused at its constant reference (even a whole chapter) of OOP concepts not included with VFP at all. If you are new to VFP this book won't help too much. If you are experienced with VFP then this book will do you little if any good.
