FoxPro is a text-based procedural programming language and relational database management system (RDBMS) developed by Microsoft. Originally created by Fox Software in the 1980s, it was designed for building database applications and managing data efficiently. FoxPro allows users to create, manipulate, and query databases using a simple syntax. The software gained popularity for its speed and ease of use, particularly in developing business applications. It supports various data types and offers features like indexing, reporting, and data manipulation. Although it has been largely replaced by more modern technologies, FoxPro remains a notable part of programming history.
