>>Hi Fred
>>
>>There were 6 of us from El Zorro User Group at the MSDN doings in Scottsdale last Thursday. The morning sessions drew almost 1,000 people for the Office 2000 Beta 2 hoopla. Of course they had to do the demo with Beta 1. Beta 2 won't be ready for another couple of weeks so we all got postcards to reserve a copy. Yes, you got one too.

>>I attended both of Brett Brewers(M$ Techno Wiz) afternoon sessions on Visual Studio. He actually uttered the F----- word on 2 seperate occasions. As you might expect both references were very brief. Just as well... the little information he did impart was completely incorrect. But I guess we have to consider this a breakthrough having M$ acknowledge that VFP is really a part of VS. Savor it... it's all we have!

>Since I was back East during the Phoenix sessions, I've reserved space in Tucson for the 29th. I guess I'll be the lone representative there. Up for a 'tweener anytime soon, to fill me in on details?

If you do go down to Tucson, don't get sucked into the 'Data Driven Websites' session. A more proper title would be 'More than anyone would ever want to know about XML' or even better 'How to clear a room at 4:00 PM'. There was some good info but it was dull, dry, boring, boring, boring. Especially after a full day of squirming around on uncomfortable chairs.

Jeff was talking tomorrow. I'll post a message on El Zorro and see who falls out.
