I assume that some 'specialists' making product evaluation in magazines just open VFP manual, see some oldest-style command like INPUT, and make conclusion this is still xbase crutched veteran.
thanks Edward for your answer... my point was... why do I have to code in
two programs (vfp30 and vfp50) to get my app to work in win31 and win95 if
I want to code in vfp50. Vfp50 should work for both win31 and win 95 until win31 is gone. ..and.. what I am saying, is... MS is pushing out win31 and it is obvious... do you agree or not?
