>>>Thanks, Craig. I wish there were more VFP champions like you out there. I'm fully willing to play in this component world, using VFP, VB, etc. etc. However, with incorrect info. like this in a summary sheet, which seemed designed specifically for management types to peruse and make decisions from, VFP is not going to get a chance in this 'new component world' that MS likes to tout regularly.

>>One of the first things Robert did when he joined Microsoft about 2 years ago was to get rid of the xBase title. xBase indicates old, outdated technology...which is NOT what VFP is. If this is still being used, especially by Microsoft, he needs to educate someone...hopefully with a big stick.

>I'm with you 100 percent. It directly counters the 'open letter to the Foxpro community' written a while back. How about a VFP posse? :-)


Hehehe....that might work too.
