Hi Matt,

along with those mentioned you could also check out CSLA.Net (http://www.lhotka.net/) which is a free framework.

>Well now I'm really confused.... now that I've begun to research Visual Studio, I've been looking into framework options for .NET, and there are more choices than I originally thought. I've seen Mere Mortals around here for a while as an apparently popular VFP framework, and they seem to have gotten on the Visual Studio bandwagon pretty early with their MM .NET. Kevin has his own section here in the .NET area somehow, and none of the others do. I wonder how / why?

>But recently I actually noticed the StrataFrame banner ad here on UT, and so I've been reading around to see what I can learn about it. It seemed impressive to me, and they seem to have a strong VFP background like Kevin too.

>So, I need some help here... Can anybody give objective feedback to help me compare the two (or any other one that deserves consideration)?

>Also, I noticed that DevExpress has a .NET frame out in beta ver 2. Has anybody looked into it? I don't really know much about them, but they seem to be some kind of player in this 3rd party market off tools.
