>I thought I would let folks know the news that today the judge dismissed the FoxPro Y2K lawsuit (Ruth H. Kaczmaerek vs. Microsoft Corporation). The case was dismissed with prejudice (meaning the claim can not be refiled), but could be appealed within 30 days. This is the first Y2K lawsuit of record to be dismissed with prejudice. Points worth highlighting in the ruling includes the Judges finding that “FoxPro is Y2K compliant” and “…there is no ‘defect’ in the program; FoxPro operates in the manner indicated by the user manual.” There will be a more formal press release soon.

Randy,
Thanks for the update. It was suspected by most of the Fox community that the case was without merit. However, the fact that the judge ruled as he did make FoxPro look good. Hopefully people outside the Fox community will take notice.
