>>>I used to work with SBT (Sad-but-true/severly-bad-technology) for about 7 years and started to really get scared when I saw how they implemented their VFP version. Instead of a full reorg/restructure of code/procedures, forms, they basically did a visual conversion and kept the code pasted in methods/external programs. They did it just to say they had the product available in VFP but still uses a lot of old techniques of programming.
Don,
do you know that those guys from SBT won a prize for that conversion...
was some of those awards from the foxpro adviser ("excellence" or something like that)... that makes the whole thing even scarier...
