>>I agree with you on what you've stated here, but IMO marketing of VFP should still be focused where I stated. Marketing to developers like this won't accomplish much if anything. Just like developers who don't have the option to change, developers who don't want to change are more than aware of VFP already.

>IMO, using most of the marketing money in a different direction is a good idea. However, the people that just put out a blanket statement that VFP market sucks are blind to all that marketing is doing.

True. I think a few blanket statements can be made out of the things the majority have agreed to during this thread:

1. FoxPro and then VFP marketing did SUCK.
2. M$ marketing of VFP has and is improving.
3 M$ marketing of VFP still has a lot to improve.
4. M$ should be better educating their own staff on all the VS tools.
5. M$ staff who don't have at least a general knowledge of all VS tools, especially ones who speak publicly, should keep their bloody mouths shut.

I'm sure there is more. To bad we can't enforce 4 and 5.
