| Posted by hostingen, 06-30-2009, 09:53 AM | | Hi,
I would like to know the difference between FoxPro, Mysql, and Access? which one is faster, which one is better, and which is the most widely adopted software?
Is FoxPro hard to program/use?
thanks.

| Posted by mwatkins, 07-02-2009, 02:00 AM | | FoxPro is a programming environment which includes both date persistence and a procedural language. MySQL is a SQL database engine (persistence) but no procedural language.
The two are not equivalent.
What type of application do you intend to develop?
