About the Producer

Visual Extend is the framework for Visual FoxPro which has made the largest leaps forward in the last years due to massive investments in new features and tools. The concept of rapid application development has been extended to Client/Server-applications with complete support for CursorAdaptor. It is by far the market-leader in the german-speaking countries. One third of sellings and half of the revenues are from NEW customers. This garantues continuity in development and maintenance. We thank our large developer community for ongoing support.

The FoxPro User Group of German language Inc., dFPUG, looks after about 800 member companies in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. It has been organizing the very succesful German VFP DevCon since 1994.

You can have a look at the ample conference proceedings and the periodical, 'FoxxProfessional' (200 printed pages A4 quarterly) in the document portal http://portal.dfpug.de/dfpug. The owner of VFX, the dFPUG, continues the support and development of this well-known framework!
