Hi Richard ----

>As far a looking better goes, I'm sure outsiders rear their heads here from time to time or maybe even just lurk to find out about VFP. But never mind, apparently advocating correct answers is a taboo subject.

Hmmm...I don't think outsiders come in here too much to find out about VFP in general because it's a PIA to create a membership just to do that, especially with MS publishing all kinds of eval guides at the MSDN site.

Advocating correct answers is not taboo, at all. But, generally, when you see something erroneous, post the correct answer to the questioner without fanfare and be done with it. If the incorrect respondent is someone you feel will take it the right way, send him or her and email or a Private message saying "Sorry but.....". I guess what I am saying is that this site works because we all try to be genteel....
