Jason,

This was one of the biggest advantages of getting a RAD tool. I knew I could figure out how to do something, but figuring out what it was I was supposed to do in what order was the problem.

The two frameworks I looked at (ProMatrix and FoxExpress) walk you through each step. After setting up all of the databases, they both started with the Menu. This would not have occured to me, but it forced me to consider and layout all of the functionality I wanted at the beginning.

New to VFP development, the handholding and forcing me to do it right was worth the price. They will also do a lot of the work for you, saving lots of time.
