>>Great! I just hoppe it's as good as you say it is. This way it would create a comnpetitor to Fox. VFP's development was ended by MS because of it's lack of competitors.

>No way -- the end of development came due to lack of revenue stream. MS is a business and like all businesses, they only pursue avenues that will make money. The VFP community was its own worst enemy in this -- how many developers are still on VFP6? How many bought upgrades for VFP7, VFP8, and VFP9? From what I have read -- most VFP applications are still on VFP6. I have developed tools for VFP9 and many developers have asked for backward compatibility with VFP6 -- why because they don't have VFP9 (let alone 7 or 8).

We'll have to wait and see. At worst nothing will change but even if there's 1 possibillity it's still there.
