Uh, excuse me but I beg to differ. I'm a pretty decent programmer, but I don't think I'm as good as the guys putting out the frameworks. I'd say they all pretty much fall within the top 5% of VFP programmers. If that's the case, then it only makes sense that one purchase one of their packages to make their own apps that much better. I chose F1's Visual FoxExpress, actually started with FoxExpress and now wouldn't think of writing an app without it. I've looked at several of the frameworks, but still feel they are the class of the lot. Plus they offer great support via the web!
