I like VFO! I don't know if you have been messing with XML messaging. I only have a few miles behind me with XMLHTTP - but the little shrink wrap my VFP was packaged in just ballooned to room size.

That article is not so much an indication that the market has opened to VFP - the market has always "liked" VFP. That article simply reflects that maybe MicroSoft has finally recognized what the market has known all along.

>Well, there's no way I can find to fix the title of this thread, so I guess we'll all have to start calling VFP - VFO<s>
