Hi Ryan,

I think the marketting people at MS have gone crazy. They don't know what they are writing.

I hear and believe that the VFP team is working hard but these words do not make me feel comfortable.

The worst part is that they claim that Visual Basic 6.0 is the development system for rapid development of Windows-based client/server applications as well as Web applications and middle-tier business components.

I agree VB is a good product. But for doing all that which they said above... VFP is ANYTIME better.

>How can we be expected to effectively sell VFP 6.0 to management for new projects if MS doesn't even mention it favorably (or accurately)? VFP is also placed at the bottom of the language list, as if to show its priority in the toolset.
