No.. it's not that I think the price of the software is bad... it's a bargin.. I know other development environments can cost ten times what VFP does. My issue is, I don't like to pay for BUG fixes!!! Granted there are alot of new features in the new version which I am sure I would be ahppy to pay for, I just like paying for bug fixes.

If the 'next version' that I have heard about all these features is shipped as a FREE service pack, I gotta tell you, I will be shocked!!!

The rumor in the VFUG newsletter is that it is a new version called 6.5, and I generally expect a charge when the version number changes.
