HiI Ed,

>These things seem to fit in with MS plans of thin-client and Terminal Server deployment. Current VFP screens cannot be transmitted by the T/S engine as efficient as other languages.

The oficial placement of VFP in VS is as a middle-tier component. For UI, you should use a "thin" client like VB or HTML. Every demonstration from Microsoft shows this. I'd rather expect improvements in the way OLEDB and ADO are accessed, better integration into MTS, better support as a COM/DCOM server. The new multithreaded DLL is one step into that direction, enhanced COM support is another.

I really doubt that Microsoft would spend much time on improving the UI in a way that we can use as developers.
