Let's take a look at these:
>
>What I want to hear are (in the order of priority):
>1. WEB Forms
Maybe we'll get it, maybe not. We'll have to see what the technology looks like in VS 7.0. It may be that what we get will be fine.
>2. ActiveX creation
I don't think you'll get this.
>3. Cross Platform to Linux (because Linux OS is really a serious threat to Windows). Windows 2000 is too slow besides, it requires high-end PC but not Linux. There are already potential clients of ours who slipped-out of our hands because of OS issue.
Won't happen. What cross-platform support you get will be things like XML and SOAP.
>4. OOP DE
It is now.
>5. OOP report writer
IMO, if this happens it will be a VS tool, not VFP.
>6. OOP menu designer
Would be nice.
>7. Native compiled Code
You won't gain anything. In fact, you'll lose more because of it.
>8. many more...
We all have our wish lists.
