How to get aware? Log on UT and get it. MS supports our forum and we support its product.
Honestly, when I look at VFP in general and see huge differences (positive ones) from 2.x days, I really appreciate MS Fox team development efforts. Yes, their resources are limited and they could do much more, however the product is really great and just cannot be kept simple enough to match its functionality.

>>IMHO, it gives Fox & Rushmore reputation of sophisticated technology. I think Erik is 100% correct in his reply: a developer should be aware of what he/she is doing with data and apply different ways in appropriate form.
