Hi Brian,
I don't want to start a new discussion, but I wonder what you mean by "Examples, It took us what 5 years or so to get intellisenese"? AFAIK, VFP was one of the first programs with this feature, it was later adopted by other languages. Don't get me wrong, I am not talking about the basic syntax tooltips feature, but the extensibility. In VFP we got the Rolls Royce straight away, no bicycle or Lada first.

>The point I’m trying to make is that adopting an obscure language from a 3rd party vendor might not be such a bright idea. FoxPro itself is fairly obscure language ( no where near the mainstream ) and its always been behind the technology power curve.
>Examples, It took us what 5 years or so to get intellisenese and then what another 2 to get it strait. But then again you may be right. We FoxPro developers seam to be gluttons for punishment.
