If LO Base is not enough for you because you need more application
logic, then there are two VFP developers who have implemented their
own successor to VFP. Cross-platform, open-source, free. It's
called Dabo (www.dabodev.com) and it uses Python as the programming
language. If you've ever learned any programming language, learning
Python will be a no-brainer.

There are a couple of other database application development
frameworks for Python (even LO Base can be scripted with Python,
although that's one of the best kept secrets of LO), but Dabo has
been specifically made by (ex-)VFP developers for (ex-)VFP
developers.

Didn't know about this one yet! Thanks for the info. I''l take a look
at it.

Sometime ago I had some success with Glom (www.glom.org). Maybe it
meets the needs of the other posters.

The others I know of would be:

using wxPython:
Dabo    http://www.dabodev.com (already mentioned)
Defis   http://sourceforge.net/projects/defis/ (Russian only)
GNUe    http://www.gnuenterprise.org/

using PyQt:
Pypapi          http://www.pypapi.org
Camelot         http://www.python-camelot.com/
Qtalchemy       http://www.qtalchemy.org/
Thyme           http://clocksoft.co.uk/downloads/
Kexi            http://www.kexi-project.org/

using PyGTK:
SQLkit  http://sqlkit.argolinux.org/
Kiwi    http://www.async.com.br/projects/kiwi/
Glom    http://www.glom.org

Openoffice Base
http://www.openoffice.org/product/base.html
Libreoffice Base
http://www.libreoffice.org/features/base/

OpenERP http://www.openerp.org
Tryton  http://www.tryton.org

Dabo (they're about to release 1.0 for Pycon), Pypapi, Camelot, SQLkit
seem to be the most actively developed and best documented ones.

OpenERP and Tryton are ERP systems that can also be used as
frameworks for non-ERP custom applications.

Apparently defunct:
        
Pythoncard      http://pythoncard.sourceforge.net/
Boa Constructor http://boa-constructor.sourceforge.net/
Knoda           http://www.knoda.org/
Rekall          ?
Gemello         http://abu.sourceforge.net/

Sincerely,

Wolfgang
