Hi Craig,

The VFP 5.0a CD also said 5.0, and one had to read the content to confirm that it was 5.0a. Now was this done to help the customers (of MS) or for the benefit of MS (no need to print a new CD label).

And I really wonder if the latest CDs for VS actually *do* still say VS 6.0? Based on 5.0a, I would guess that they *do*. So one would still have to read the content to confirm anything different.

Cheers,

Jim N

>>Still, it says "Visual Studio 6.0a Edition".. as if there is a 6.0a version of VS. You know me Craig, I keep up with this stuff pretty closely and I was surprised to see 6.0a, that's why I asked about it. So, users/clients asking about it will get what answer? I have a client who keeps an eye on this stuff too, and has MSDN subscription at his company. Every time there has been a new version or SP since VFP 3.0 he has contacted me about getting his system "upgraded", he's pretty fanatical about it.
