I know that there are some Visual FoxPro developers on this list who use PostgreSQl as their back-end. My question to them is...
VFP will run in WINE up to VFP version 8. But the people I talk to that are doing this are using VFP's native tables. Does anyone know if it's possible to run VFP8 in WINE and connect to Postgresql on a Linux server? I think part of the question here is how would WINE emulate the ODBC to get to the Postgresql server.
The reason for this strange question is that our corporation has standardized all custom development to be done in VFP. We need a stable back-end and some of us are now using Postgresql as our database server. It would be really nice if we could run our client apps on Linux as well.
