Chicago FoxPro User/Developer Group
Meeting title:	Brian Marquis on Flexible Fox Trails
Date:	April 13, 2010 18:30
Description:	Fox Trails was designed from the ground up to be a web architecture that insulates the distinct tiers of an application from each other. This allows different components to be swapped out with a different implementation without breaking the entire application. Join us on April 13th when the author of Fox Trails will demonstrate some interesting applications of this concept by replacing standard web pages with an interactive Adobe Flex application that connects to the same back end FoxPro business logic.

User group history/membership rate/objectives:	CFUDG meets on the 2nd Tuesday of every month in Chicago. Presentations on hot topics by national speakers or local talent are followed by group discussion and shorter presentations. Attendance is stable between 12 and 20. Camaraderie is in abundance and fox wisdom abounds. Membership is $65 per year or $10 per meeting (first meeting is free). Our objective is to promote VFP and share knowledge that will improve our programming skills while using the best data-centric desktop application IDE in the civilized world.
