Chen's documentation on what's been done should have those answers. One thing definitely not done is the 2GB single file size limit.

And maybe the 'modern' ODBC drivers (64-bit) can now be used? <shrug> Probably the best answer would be to try to recompile an app into VFP 10 and do some speed/timing tests (like anyone has time for that.... heh). -Charlie On Thu, Apr 16, 2020 at 12:32 PM MB Software Solutions, LLC < mbsoftwaresoluti...@mbsoftwaresolutions.com> wrote: > (And let's face it...we VFP devs need all the marketing hype we can > get if we're still pushing our apps. lol) > > > On 4/16/2020 11:28 AM, MB Software Solutions, LLC wrote: > > I finally I downloaded the VFPA runtime files and am going to use > > that IDE and develop/deploy with this "VFP 10" version since many > > here have spoken of it without much negativity. > > > > Question: what would be the benefit of using the 64-bit version IF > > I'M NOT USING DBFS (because in my MBSS apps, I use MariaDB/MySQL as > > the backend, not VFP).
