I've talked to several VFP "gurus" who have had to go in behind other "gurus" and clean up their mess. I was told that the code was so bad, they pretty much started over. The project I'm thinking of was for a large, US-based entertainment company.


>Doesn't stop Walter, et.al. either. Most mom and pop's use VFP stuff:
