Hi, Claudio.

>Martin, I have more than 13 years working with FOX... During those years, 4 international travels to DEVCONs in the U.S.A.. Maybe 20 aprox. to São Paulo.. At least 50 different literatures here is on my shelf .. Many and many hours of study and research.. Almost 10 application is currently running on different clients..

>Can you see here any reason to turn V.F.P. "THE CAUSE" ? If you don't.. I'm sorry, it is because you never has spent a single penny on V.F.P. !!

I've being using xBase for about 20 years, since I had to dissasemble dBase II to make it work in a network. I use Fox since FoxBase, and I've being involved in betas since VFP 3.0. Most of the applications the company I worked for the las 16 years where Fox-based, and it was my main mean for a living for most of theat time. Even so, if someone comes to me and presents me a tool that could "potentially" be better, I would surely pay attention, or at least, ignore it, but I can't deny anyone the right to think this is so good of better than VFP. And this is, as I see it, what you're doing respecting to Kevin.

>>I'm very sorry, but the more I read from you in this thread the more it seems to me tht you are acting totally from a prejudice standpoint, with no objective arguments at all.

>Yeah.. It really happens when we see somebody with different point of view of ours.. Some people know how to live with different point of view.. Someothers, instead that prefer to believe that the "other side" it is a stupid person and don't have an intelligence so superior as them..

>I'm sorry if my intelligence is not so superior as yours bro..

Of course, I'm not questioning you intelligency. I absolutely agree with wht you said about points of view, and what I'm questioning is exactly that. You are invalidating Kein's POV but saing that him trying to teach people how they can convert applications from VFP to other platform is evil, and also, that people could be not smart enought to decide on their own if converting is useful or not.

So, my friend, what I see is that your vision seems to be affected by some passion that it is valid, but I doubt could be required from other people.

Best regards,
