I know that somebody else here HAS to ask you this question - so, I
might as well be 1st!
So - Why VFP? I'm sure others will say the same thing. If someone is
going to start to learn programming - why start them off in a language
that was Killed Off by M$??
I don't mean to start a fight over this. And, I know folks will chime in
and defend VFP. Heck - I do at times too - since VFP is STILL my core
programming language. But, for a newbie - it may be best to start using
some other language that is widely in use - maybe even something like
Python - which is the 1st language my son seriously got into. He started
seriously getting into Python last year about this time - then he even
did an Internship this past summer - with a Physics researcher - writing
programs to help analyze data. He was actually 15 when he started the
Internship!

If you had an opportunity to teach a novice who is interested in learning
programming in general and specifically with Visual Foxpro who has limited
previous programming knowledge and experience, where would you start and are
there some preferred VFP training materials/books/videos that are
recommended.
In my opinion there are two issues: 1) Basic Programming Skills and 2) VFP
specific skills, and I'm interested in your suggestions in how to meet both
of those needs. Plus if there are other issues, let me know that as well.
Thanks in advance!
