Hi again Craig ----

(Missive: Such marvelous topics to be involved in while waiting for the Star Wars trailer to download)

I've wondered why MS never has stressed RAD in general marketing of VFP but then I realized that they had coopted "best RAD tool" for VB and therefore probably decided not to use RAD and VFP in the same paragraph.

>I don't think there is a problem with calling older versions of Fox as xBase, but VFP is such a dramatic jump, I think it should be called "OOP RAD tool for highspeed database development" or some such thing.
