An irreverent look at how Visual FoxPro really works. Tells you the inside scoop on every command, function, property, event and method of Visual FoxPro 7.0. The eagerly awaited revision to the Hacker's Guide for Visual FoxPro 6.0, this completely updated book is the one you'll keep by your side for as long as you develop in Visual FoxPro.

As an in-depth reference for sophisticated corporate developers or Visual FoxPro consultants, this title teaches developers how to develop Internet enabled applications including Active Server Pages and Active Documents. The CD-ROM contains the FoxPro Foundation Classes--a fully developed set of class libraries that developers can begin using immediately.

Visual FoxPro has long been the perfect front end for client-server applications. Featuring a robust programming language, a full-featured IDE, and a powerful object model, rich client development has always been a joy. Inside, a native local data engine, integrated hooks into binding with remote data, and Rushmore technology make VFP your secret weapon when connecting to SQL back-ends. MySQL is the world's most popular open source SQL database, running on Windows, Linux, and Macintosh platforms. Version 5 incorporates big-iron features like stored procedures and transactions. These features, together with the royalty free runtime model of VFP and the open source licensing of MySQL make client-server applications built with these tools the most powerful and economical combination on the planet. And this book is the only one that shows you specifically how to install, configure, and connect MySQL and VFP, as well as build a variety of client-server user interfaces with VFP. Together with dozens of discussions of real world problems and potential solutions, you won't find a better guide to MySQL and VFP client-server development.

Visual FoxPro developers are used to building large, complex applications using only VFP as their programming environment. But Windows users are demanding more - integration with other applications such as the Microsoft Office suite - Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook. Visual FoxPro can be used to automate - either visually or behind the scenes - any task or process that you could do manually in Office - plus much more. In Microsoft Office Automation with Visual FoxPro, you'll learn how to create powerful applications that span the entire Office suite, using Visual FoxPro in the driver's seat.
