<br></font></blockquote></p><DEFANGED_div><br>In my experience with FoxPro (one industry-specific application used
for 10 years now) it's not particularly stable even on Windows. As FoxPro is owned by Microsoft, you are really SOL as far as using it on Linux. Your only real alternative is to rewrite the application in something more platform independent.
