>>I'm assuming that was a jest. :o) Not THE Fabian Pascal of Database Debunkings? Can't be. He would not really fall into the "VFP community" would he? More of an expert in the field in general. If he does fall into the "VFP community" umbrella, then I totally was blind to that.... I picture a "community rep" to be from the typical VFP developer community...not an expert and not an MVP, but an active participant in the community (for years) for sure. Even an MVP or former MVP of course (Foxpro of course given the award) would be fine.

And you are exactly the type of community rep I think is appropriate for the role :o) You are directly involved in the VFP community and have been for years.
