'Visual' was just the Microsoft buzzword of the day - they were including the new Win32, OOP version of FoxPro in the Visual Studio suite of products and so they probably wanted to align the name with Visual BASIC, Visual InterDev and so on.

Visual FoxPro is the successor to FoxPro. In the transition from FoxPro 2.6 to Visual FoxPro 3.0, many things were added including object orientation, a much improved tool for designed forms, built-in support for remote SQL databases and more.
