Yes, that's one thing I've always loved about the Fox in Windows. It behaved as I was used to from my experience with my Mac (regular Mac software and FoxPro Mac). Unlimited undo has been wonderful. Unless the latest version of Word has it, I don't think Word has ever had that. Undo is - IMHO - the best software feature ever invented. It's not sexy these days, but we use it all the time and just take it for granted (though it's often poorly implemented on the PC). Without FoxPro Mac, FPW and VFP wouldn't be as good.
