Robert Green was at our user group last month and discussed the Service Pack. There is no release date...and he did not promise that VFP fixes will be in the next SP. He just said that we will see them in a future SP.

As for the HP printer problem, it is NOT a VFP problem, but a problem with HP. (I know your users don't like to hear this.) HP is setting a flag in the printer driver, then not setting it back. VFP checks the flag and sees something it doesn't expect. Since it doesn't know how to handle what it sees, it blows up. The VFP team decided that since HP will not fix it, they will handle the incorrect value.
