>WOW, this is SO futuristic. ... But wait, VFP's local Cursors? Hasn't this already being done. It still bugs me that MS turns out a old feature as if it was a new idea.

>I am still tring to figure out why we are reverting to a simular computer technogy that first learned back in the 80's. That is; all the real work is done on the server, and the workstation is dumb terminal. Plus, all the data is stored on the server and none on the workstation. Computer techinology has made a complete 360. I perdicting that in the next 10 to 20 years, someone is going to come up with the great idea that if we store and process the data locally we could gain more performance. WOW, would n't that be a great improvement!

Yeah, we're definitely going in circles. The old mainframe guys saw the web as a return to doing everything on the server. Now it's going back to client/server with more being done in the browser. Same thing, different platform. I guess it's a sign we've been doing this a LONG time. :)
