Hi Jim,

I sure do. I think I've heard (from around here) that it should be out in Feb. of next year. I can tell you that they're in their second release candidate version. If I were to hazard a WAG, I'd say they're probably about to burn the CDs now, if it hasn't already. From what I know, I think that Win2K is the primary platform at MS right now. As you may know, the next version of VFP was demoed on that platform at the last DevCon.

From what little experience I have with it, it's a great improvement. I was a bit disappointed in the startup time (very slow). Then, when I read the article I mentioned, I had a thought that might explain.

One of the things that it's targeted to eliminate (once and for all) is "DLL Hell". If an application overwrites a Win2K DLL (that the platform uses), Win2K restores the appropriate DLL. My thought is that this is one of the things it checks at startup.
