>>Ahh, but we are pushing! Do you know how many times I've said in the Spanish newsgroups, where I answer daily, after offering a response to somebody using VFP6 (and even VFP5!) that they should upgrade instead of using such a dated version. More so, how many times I (and others) have said: "happens that the feature you are asking for (in your VFP6) is already in VFP9 or the problem has been solved in VFP9".

Yes of course. We started a campaign a couple of years ago to push them to be legal. Many people in the forums took it to heart and added "Help the Fox. Legalize your copy", or similar language in their sigs.
