With a VFP app?

>You might want to consider whether you really need to install this SP, though. I don't see anything right off the bat that's going to get me pumped up enough to upgrade all my users :) I'm just going to run SP4 on my test machine for now, and leave the SP3 in place elsewhere. Unless I see something that looks important...vfp7 will be out before too long, you know.

I am going to update now while it is a choice instead of having something break and being forced to do the patch. Good point though.
