We conduct developer tracking studies on a regular basis. We ask what products they are using. We also ask if they own Visual Studio. The next part is simple math! <vbg>

>>>The VFP7 team has only one requirement to MS, that is to show that the product makes more money than it costs. Right now it does, if in the future it fails to make money then it will disappear.
>>
>>Just curious if you know, but how does MS have accurate figures if VC, VB, and VFP are all sold on the same Discs?
