Hi All ----

Good news! It appears that the new certification exams for VFP 6.0 will be in beta well before the end of the year.

The two websites with details on what topics will be covered by the exams are:

www.microsoft.com/mcp/exam/stat/SP70-156.htm (Distributed)
www.microsoft.com/mcp/exam/stat/SP70-155.htm (Desktop)

It is very important to we as developers who use VFP and want to increase visibility for the product (as well as enhance our salaries and billing rates) that we all attempt to certify. When the beta tests come online, take them! You have nothing to lose; if you pass the beta it counts as passing the real test!

The more participation, the better the tests are and the more likely that MS will continue to support VFP certification as part of the MCSD track.

Whil Hentzen will be addressing this topic more in an upcoming issue of FoxTalk....I will post the link here when it becomes available.
