>Dear all,

>Go the the url below and see some description on the next generation of VFP. Some mention of COM, Web Services and middle tier. Hope that MS keep their promises this time around.

What do you mean by this? MS has never promised anything about Fox that they didn't deliver.

>Again I would like to see support for COM+,

To fully support web serves, VFP 7.0 will need to support COM+. Robert Green has already publically stated that 7.0 will support web services.

>all type of ActiveX control,

I don't see this happening. All ActiveX control authors would need to make sure they tested with VFP.

>true windows object,

No, no, no. This will have performance penalties.

>callbacks

This would be nice, but you can do it now with a VB wrapper object.

>and UI that on par to the VS family.

Not sure what you mean by this, but if you're talking about the development environment, I MUCH prefer the design of VFP. I'm much more productive. In the VS environment, I spend LOTS of time resizing the code and design windows.
