>The problem with that observation is that very often people assume that because someone is in support of the MS position on an issue that they are necessarily sycopath for MS. That measn that just because an MVP doesn't agree with others regarding a Microsoft issue doesn't mean the MVP is cottoning to MS. In the 6+ years that I have been an MVP I have Never had anyone at Microsoft ask me to say or not say anything.

You're not a part of the VFP 7 beta program ?? you've didn't sign a (how do you you called it agin ?) a contract to keep your mouth shut about a future VFP version ?

Nontheless i believe you, but a MVP title is not an unimportant tile (IMO), and though this does not mean you've got to defend MS in any way, IMO it still builds some relationship with MS in one or another way. It depends on the person him/herself if they feel they should somehow be liable to MS.

Just a thought,
