Is Fox-Pro 2.6 for DOS still in use anywhere?

Is it realistic to expect to get telecommuting
work in this?

I worked on Foxpro 2.6 in 1992/93! I and some of my collegues still have these skills. But we are based out of Chennai in India. Let me know what help you need.

I have only seen a couple of companies that still use it. Mainly because they have old apps that still do the job. The only opportunities I would think are still available are for short projects to make small upgrades. These are probably few and far between. I was asked to teach a 2.6 class in 01, but could not find training materials. I personally have not seen telecommuting jobs for this at all. There are some companies in Atlanta and other cities that still support FoxPro, you may find some work subing for companies like that around the country.

Out of the 3 results I found on dice.com (out of 31,000+ jobs listed) for FoxPro 2.6 none were telecommuter friendly. It is in use, you can get a job, but you gotta be on site.
