Hi David,
>You really should get the whole VS.

It IS actually on my list of things to do. So far, VFP can handle everything I need to do. (Don't tell anyone, but I've written quite a few VB programs <G>, just not for the current application.) I'm in the process of enabling our apps to use SQL Server, with good success so far. Another guy is working to web-enable portions of the same app. My kids are taking up the free time I used to have for "playing" around with things like C++, etc. Not that I'm complaining, I wouldn't trade for the world!
