Thanks Marcel, I have now!

I don't see anything in there that hasn't been around for at least a while, and no mention (that I found anyway) of .NET.

I still lean to VS7 and VS.NET being separate products.

Cheers,

Jim N

>>I get the distinct impression, from reading the About.NET whitepaper, that VisualStudio.NET would be a separate product altogether.

>>I also see heavy use of the word "subscribe", making me wonder if this is more towards time-based software "licensing" (my terminology for downloading a product for use then it disappearing from your system when you close it) as opposed to permanently installed on your computer.

>>I also don't see *any* mention of the standard development languages in the white paper.

>>>OK, it looks more and more like the next version of Visual Studio will not be called Visual Studio 7, it will be called Visual Studio .NET

>>>Does this mean that the next version of VFP will be called VFP.NET? Inquiring minds want to know... :-)
