Hello Scott,

>>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!


The MaxFrame message board is as active as ever with several very experienced and strong users answering questions. I am sure that even if nothing ever was added to the framework, it combined with VFP9 would be a great toolset for many years to come.

HTH,
