>Also, I might be able to attend a conference in 2000. What are the strenghts of each confernce? I assume the two top Devcons will be similar.

I've had the good fortune of attending all but the second Fox Devcons, this years Double Impact Mega Event in Vegas, about 4 Tech Eds and the last two Devdays. If you can fund it, I'd recommend the September Devcon because MS will be there in a "big" way. VFP 7 should be out by then and the MS guys/gals will be showing off the "here's how you do this!" The other conferences offer the top 5% of Fox programmers, but this one will have them and the Fox team. For me, it's a no brainer. If you can go to a couple, go spring and fall.< G >
