I used to think that about VFP.. :-)

Seriously, VFP 3.x and 5.x left me very frustrated whenever I tried
to get grids or multicolumn list boxes to work the way I wanted them to work.
I needed grids with subclassable columns and headers, and list boxes
that had properties which were named something akin to what they actually did.

Alan (of KSoft) and I used to work together. I know he has good intentions
for dBase 2000. I hope he can pull it off. Maybe he can scare Microsoft into
putting more resources into VFP.
