Customer Reviews

One of the few good (Just For Mac) FoxPro Books...

Until I found this book, I was using FoxPro books written for the PC to create my applications. This book does an excellent job of tayloring the FoxPro language to take advantage of the unique Macintosh user interface while still supporting cross-platform development on the PC as well. I found the section on multi-user access especially usefull. It is slightly out-of-date now since Visual FoxPro is now available for the Macintosh. Unfortunately, I have not found a Visual FoxPro book that meets the needs of the Macintosh community like "Hacking FoxPro".
