>Because it was developed after VFP 6.0 was released. I assume you will agree it's better for the VFP community to be able to download and use this DLL in VFP 5.0 and VFP 6.0 instead of waiting until the next full version of VFP ships, correct? <s> VFPCOM.DLL was conceived and developed internally by the VFP team (same people that design and develop VFP).
You might remember that I asked that same question a long while back. Given
the fact that VFPCOM is just shipping now, I'm not so sure your answer is
the right one <s>...
I think the real benefit is that it also works with VFP 5 and in fact any
COM client that doesn't support COM events. That's pretty useful beyond VFP.
