>>A question that popped into my head this weekend. There have been numerous frameworks for VFP, but none that I recall for VB, and the ones that have popped up for dotnet mostly appear to be coming from prior VFP developers.

I think that's very true of Strataframe. At this stage reminds me a lot of VFE 6.0 circa 1999. There was a lot of promise, good design, definitely better than working without it, but it would take a couple years of use to determine best-practices, refinement and enhancement and some major changes in the underlying ( VFP ) functionality to give it the maturity it has now. Since the energy level is much higher in .NET now than it was in VFP even six years ago I would think it will take about another two years for the Strataframe framework to be what is in the mind of its designers.

Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.

Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
