I have VFP 5.0 but can't really use it right now because we are still in a mixed 16/32 bit environment. Wish we could though, it has some super features. I ordered my 3.0b upgrade yesterday, M$ only charged me $5 - guess the price has gone down.

I'll let you know how the new Informix driver works out if and when I ever get it.
