>>Who did you talk to that said, "use another product?" What was their job? Was their compensation based on sales of products? Did they have sales quotas to meet? I'm not saying what they did was right, but they may have had their own compensation as their biggest interest. There are lots of things at play that could have caused that response.

And it was STRANGE on the MS Campus. You'd meet Microsofties and tell them that you worked in FoxPro and they wouldn't have a clue that MS owned FoxPro.

It was interesting, however, to see, I think it was around Building 19, but there was a courtyard that had square paving stones for lack of a better word and it had all the MS Products with what date they shipped going all the way back to whatever was their first product. And somewhere in there was FoxPro for Windows I think it was.
