The whole John Koziol story made me rack my brains while I was on the bike today. The apparent, immense return on investment pressure on the team actually frightened me.

Though I think VFP got more good marketing than ever recently by the LINQ story, I think there´s more money on the streets during the next months.

AFAIK SQL Express doesn´t have any reporting features at all. I don´t have the big picture what reporting is like and how much $$$ in the VB Express,... VS or Crystal reporting products, but I think VFP9SP1 really stands out with its querying and reporting features.

With all the marketing machinery that´s going to get up to steam next month, wouldn´t there be some crumbs for VFP too, or for a limited version (including a special wizard)? Or would that be a business opportunity for developers?

Just caring

PS: Kudos again to the (reporting engine) team! Great work!
