Well, I realize this isn't your "job" but, since you are saying lot's more than Microsoft, do you know if the VFP 6.0 cert will be a choice for the second two core exams? I am referring to the two exams that currently force you to choose between VB 6.0 and VC++ 6.0.

Microsoft announced at DevCon that there would be a VFP 6.0 exam. I would hope that they follow the same core language exams as VB & VC++, but nothing has been said about this.
