>>Discussing things with this person is a huge waste of time. All he does is come here to stir up trouble. He claims >>to have left VFP and has nothing but ridicule for the VFP community. So why is he concerned with the publication >>schedule if not to stir up trouble? I've got no time to waste in that activity and I advise you to do the same.

I spend about 10 hours per week maintaining VFP applications.


`all he does is come on here to stir up trouble`
I think I have more `3 star solutions` to my credit than you do in 2008. I've also posted less messaages than you have in 2008. Therefore, my messages are providing value.


`and has nothing but ridicule for the VFP community`

VFP9 isn't `horrible`. However, Visual Studio 2008 is a better software tool than VFP 9.
If others wish to continue to develop solutions in a tool being marginalized (VFP9) by its creator they are taking a career risk. I wish VFP were not marginalized then I wouldn't have had to go through the painful ego gutting process of learning Visual Studio 2005.


UniversalThread supports multiple development platforms not just Visual Foxpro. I follow the .NET forum and the Foxpro forum. That is why I come on UniversalThread. I find the .NET MVPs on here provide great information for building data centric Visual Studio applications.
Great Job Michel!

Thanks for your comprehensive answer to my original question Craig...
now I know what to recommend to a tiny courier company where I service a small but useful Foxpro application....

UT helps solve another technical issue for me again!
