You infer too much from a few words and jump at the chance to accuse me of assumptions I never made. In regards to "the community", I'd hazard a guess that out of the group still making a living using this powerful language, a significant majority of them do not appreciate the sniping that goes on towards VFP from some of the ex-VFP people. If someone wants to move on, fine, that's their choice. But it's the attack on the old language that doesn't sit well. I don't sit around and slam .NET in the .NET forums or any other language, for that matter. Each language has its strengths and weaknesses, but some programmers (in any language) have to slam whatever they are not using. What are you using John? VFP, .NET, Java, what? Are you one of these people? Do you think it's ok to attack a language as strong and robust as VFP just because you're not using it anymore?

>>The problem the community has with you and others like you is that you made a decision and now that VFP continues to live a healthy life with many great new features, you decide you have to make it your personal mission to kill it in order to justify your decision. If you've gone elsewhere, then stay there and don't snipe at your old language.

>You say: "the problem the community has with you and other like you...". This implies that someone has appointed you the arbiter of what the community thinks and how the community wants to act. This community is composed of 1,000's of members. Ergo, by default, you are speaking for 1,000's. How did you come by that right?

>BTW, any post here in this thread is fair game to all, not just the addressee. You have jumped in many times and replied to my posts that were not directed to you, yet you criticize othere for similar behavior. Typical behavior, hold other accountable to what we deem are the norms, but we ourselves are free from such restriction.
