Oh I definitely think they've got what sounds like a great product, and I only wish I had lots of Fox databases out there so that I *could* become a reseller...but alas, I don't. I've been using MySQL as my preferred backend of choice since 2004. FabMate Lite Classic, though (from 2003) still uses DBFs. I have 2 clients using that. I will probably recommend Rick's utility to them.

And don't forget the captions and stored procedures in the DBC. I mean, how hard can it be? Selling utilities to programmers is hard, because they all COULD do it. And after a dozen revisions or so, including some teed-off customers, they will have ironed out most of the bugs. Until the next one. Or you could pay someone else to do it for you, mark it up and charge it to the customer. We created our own here by having a baseline data set on a backup server and then zap each table and append from the live data. You then keep all the database properties with the stored data. You have to update the backup set if you make a structure change but it's not that difficult. As Alan says, you don't know if it is a valid backup at a point in time as it takes time to run, so you may have say stock transactions for a new stock item but no new stock item. Having said this it is MUCH better than no backup and you don't have to have everyone out to run it, so it can be run several times during the day.
