Actually, I think the Boston area has improved a little from a year ago. I've been scanning the Boston Globe, Boston's NetTemps.com & the Boston classifieds of Yahoo.com for the past year and a half. Globe ads for VFP have always been fairly low but the other 2 sites have improved a little. I've also been getting
better hourly quotes from the contract houses. I'm a bit more optimistic now than I was 18 months ago.

>That is heartening news indeed! Unfortunatly, I can't say the same for the Boston area. I just scanned the globe classifieds yesterday (not that I'm looking or anything!) and actually found more postings for DIBOL than VFP!! (It's not as if there was a proliferation of DIBOL listings but there really weren't any VFP postings at all). In fact, there was only 1 Foxpro listing and it was incredibly lame (the dreaded "M" word - maintenance on FP 2.6 apps - how dreadful)
