Hi Dragan ----

I could tell you some horror stories about projects where the developer(s) was suipposedly a VFP guru and .... well, you know.

Not to my knowledge....in fact, I'm pretty sure they weren't at the time.

>Nope - wrong point (but left it anyway, just for fun). I wanted to say that we're already doing our part in alleviating the professionalism in our ranks - remember the many threads about better GUI, elegant solutions, contracts, better ways to do things, etc etc. We're helping each other to become better professionals. I can't be responsible for any freelance street fox, unless the person comes here and asks a few questions.

Agreed. I guess the point I'm making is that if we're going to create a professional association to promote the platform, we have to be prepared to demonstrate professionalism. Just the same way the American NEA monitors teachers...well...sort of.
