>VFP 3.0 had it's own windows forms and controls for performance reasons, the visual class designer and form object model, for backward compatibility with previous versions of FoxPro, etc. VFP 3.0 and beyond has been able to host ActiveX controls. I don't recall the architecture of dBase for Windows (BladeRunner) although I was on the alpha for Borland back then and I still have a video tape of the first demos of it they ever showed, back from the early 90s. :)

I have to dig mine up - I don't even know if I had a VCR back then - I just wanted to get it installed (i think it was with beta - but it may have been my subsequent "reward", a real "user license" for dutifully complying with the agreement - even so - if I did - I would have "offed" it.

But now - to know I can throw peanuts at my TV while a "younger" Levy does an xBase show and tell is too much to bare - and begs that I track it down (Just kidding!:-).

Was it your first video? I want to see the out-takes!
