>>>>Yep. I'd venture to say that it's not VFP thats dead, but it's the UT that's dead. Always the SAME people talking to the SAME people about the SAME things - it's been that way for years now. It's pitifull, actually.

>>>With all due respect, Jeff, I think you may be in denial. Things may be hunky dory with you and the bank and this particular VFP app, but I do not believe that is the general case at all.

>>To continue what I said to Bill - when the punk rock came, it was an obvious death of the era of guitar heroes, underground music (of which only some sub-branches, like hard rock and sympho survived). To my amazement, though, all my records with dead music still sounded the same.

>I thought the issue here was what kind of new music is made, not whether the old music still plays.

Depends how you define "no future". If I say my coffee cup has no future, does it vanish immediately, or can I still use it? If I can use it tomorrow, then that's already my coffee cup in a future. So it has one.

IOW, "it has no future" is a tricky statement, a sales pitch if you want. A dogmatic, "needs no proof" shoveling statement, designed to put the opponent on the defense. Almost like the classic FUD coming from M$'s PR kitchen. Wait...
