Hi Jim,

That's the way it should be.

There is plenty of docs - at least with the SDK. There are docs for ADO 1.5 - most of which applies to ADO 2.0. There are also a number of good resources on the market and at conferences today.
>Call me silly, but I will *not* make use of a product which is only "documented" on the Web. Once it is included with VFP (or is available as a separate stand-alone product) then I will consider using it.
Does that include research? Are you really saying that you won't even look at, and learn about a product before it is complete? Seems to me that in this day and age, being a software developer, that this sort of strategy is somewhat limiting. I agree that stuff should not be placed in production. However, that has nothing to do with taking time to learn about the technology. I really find this view point facinating. Then again, aren't you the same guy who took the CON position with regard to hungarian notation - or naming conventions in general in FoxTalk?
All I am saying is that if folks who make comments - negative or otherwise- should probably hold judgments - especially public ones, until he/she learns about what it is he/she is talking about.
