Example Code Doesn't Work with VFP 5.0,
By A Customer
This review is from: Revolutionary Guide to FoxPro Oop, with CD-ROM (Paperback)
This book is written for Visual FoxPro 3.0, and when running the example projects in version 5.0 they must be converted. The conversion apparently causes some kind of problem that may cause the code not to execute properly. This makes following the tutorials in the book rather difficult.
I e-mailed their "support" staff, and after waiting more than a week for a response, they said in essence they had received this complaint before, but didn't know what to do about it.
I'd skip this book unless you're working only in version 3.0.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Offers detailed discussion of OOP frameworks for VFP 3.0,
By A Customer
This review is from: Revolutionary Guide to FoxPro Oop, with CD-ROM (Paperback)
This book is a guide to OOP implementation in VFP 3.0. It provides far more discussion and detail on this subject than any other book I have seen. I like that it does discuss the real-world issues that programmers must be concerned with, presenting the pros and cons of alternative approaches. It is aimed at a relatively advanced reader. The authors assume the reader has a full understanding of database programing in general and of the FoxPro language in particular.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Intense focus on object oriented programming & design w/VFP,
By A Customer
This review is from: Revolutionary Guide to FoxPro Oop, with CD-ROM (Paperback)
This book is the only book I've found that both includes in-depth coverage of object orientation and is specifically written for FoxPro programmers. The sample application ran fine for me under both 3.0 and 5.0. I recommend this book to all advanced FoxPro programmers that want to make the most of Visual FoxPro.
