Hi Ed,
I am talking about FIRST-TIME user who is trying it out.
When you consider these, along with WAITs for 5ms to get other things to work as documented/expected and even the wiggle the mouse when using OLE stuff, turns out that a lot of VFP is subject to idiosynchrocies. Oddities which no one not "in the know" would even dream of trying to work around a problem. So they rack it up to "too complicated for me" or "doesn't work like it should" and they move on to other products.
Cheers,
Jim N
