Giving the link in your first post probably would have been better...

You might check my post again. Source control is mentioned, but not in the majority of lines. I touched quite a few of your other topics <g>.

Because IMHO any large team programming is not only dead in the water like a 1 or 2 man team without source control, but already sunk without everybody having noticed it. So I reiterated consiciously. And if you ever had the "pleasure" of working in a distributed team with source safe "Shadow" you'll probably agree also find it a stupid/error prone way to conduct source control, so I mentioned it.

This is coming from someone:
having expirience in other languages
having worked in 30+ sized teams in vfp and other languages
has helped implement round-trip integration of Rational Rose into a vfp project as well as a javadoc-like approach
thinking your base observation HAS merit, but could have been pesented better (with the link directly) to help the OP
that working in a team with implementation inheritance is gradually different than working with interface inheritance or no OOP at all

If you re-check your posts: perhaps a twice as long original post would have been more constructive/better use of your time compared to the many posts, of which some sound mostly defensive to me?
