>>When you have a company as big as Microsoft, things sometimes take some time to trickle out to other offices, especially in other countries. I see lots of VFP mentioned here in SLC. Not just from Microsoft, but from ATECs and employers. In the last week, I've been contacted by at least three companies looking for Fox developers...a total of 10-12 positions to fill.

>>When you attend seminars like you're talking about, and VFP is not mentioned or treated as "oh yeah, we have VFP too", talk to the presenter after. Get their name and send it on to Robert Green. I know for a fact that he will contact them. I've said before that we have to preach the word and see VFP too. Yes, Microsoft needs to do some too, but we need to help out.

>>As for product growth, the "stealth" presentations as TechEd will go along way to bring new people in and have them use VFP.

>>There is still lots going on that you don't see. As a user group president and an MVP I may see more than most others. The support and commitment is there.

>Thanks Craig, at least you can see now how much concern we have about VFP. And as I have mentioned, we are very much too dependent on the product, and in fact, our boss is suggesting to start looking for other tools. My stand is, we should give VFP6.0 the benefit of the doubt.
