>>I've use Maxframe in the past and it was pretty easy to get into (although it was definitely "monolithic" at the time). The various code styles kind of bugged me, though. I was used to the more consistent code Kevin wrote. It had a lot of code which works around various quirks in VFP behavior, which can be nice. I can be obsessive about UI stuff, but there are work arounds for things I just never noticed (Drew paid a lot of attention to some things I probably wouldn't have; I mean that in a good way).

>In the beginning, some of the Maxframe code was written by several of Drew's companions. I don't know if that code was ever re-written by Drew? Anyway, having been around him in user group meetings, etc., I could see that the man knew his stuff, that's for sure!

That argument about code "consistency" is purely cosmetic. Drew's style also changed during the years. Should he go back and rewrite working code?
