My point was not highest or largest, but that MS has HIGHER profile and LARGER apps out there that made no difference in their choice to axe VFP. A group of retired developers with limited funding cannot compete (no matter how competent they are) with the scope of apps already out there.

Grady's desire, however, well intentioned, will make zero difference to MS.

But, you got me thinking about the possiblity of a grand project, of some sort, on which we could all collaborate. A project that will be so astounding that MS might think that they made a mistake when they decided to totally drop VFP instead of recoding it?
