What?? For shame, Bruce < g >.

>I wouldn't disagree with Ken Levy on this, exactly. I have two apps built from scratch in vfp6, and even before SP3 I was not having problems (like the C000005) that many had reported. These small apps are very smooth and stable. In that sense (and especially after SP3), vfp6 is as Ken says, I certainly agree.

But I'm still a little suspicious about upgrading into 6 since that experience...

First, you certainly are entitled to your opinion. Further, I'll agree with you about the initial performance problems with 6.0. However, SP3 has (seemingly) corrected this aspect. I believe (just to clarify) that Ken was speaking directly about VFP 6.0 SP3. At least that's my recollection. Any problems I've had with it, have been self-induced.:-)
