>Foxpro/DOS has reached the end of its lifecycle. VFP has not (right?). That's why it is not the same issue. What I suggested in my reply (you may have missed that, because I wrote that in an update), is that it is made clear that it is rather only the IMPORT command that has come to the end of its lifecycle. If that is confirmed, then I suggest this is explicitly stated in its documentation with the next SP.

I think you're attempting to split a hair that can't be split. FoxPro *IS* at the end of its lifecycle.

So was Clipper S/86 many years ago, but our customers are still running applications written in it. They don't complain that it can't understand XL8 or XL5 files.
