We didn't say you don't get a second chance :)

Just count how many lines of code you've written for chopping filenames into drive, path, filename and extension, or how many times you've used a combination of At() and Subs() just to chop a string out of a bigger string. There are functions like JustDrive(), JustPath(), JustFname(), JustStem(), JustExt(), Words() and WordNum() in FoxTools which do that right away. When I see code in VFP written without them, I always have a weird feeling that it was written in FoxPlus :) It sounds so spaghetti'd sometimes.

Sounds completely Armenian to me.
