Description

Visual FoxPro developers are used to building large, complex applications using only VFP as their programming environment. But Windows users are demanding more—integration with other applications such as the Microsoft Office suit—Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Outlook. Visual FoxPro can be used to automate—either visually or behind the scenes—any task or process that you could do manually in Office, plus much more. In Microsoft Office Automation with Visual FoxPro, users learn how to create powerful applications that span the entire Office suite, using Visual FoxPro in the driver’s seat.
