Don't know how many of you will be interested, but if you were a client looking to hire a Microsoft expert, i.e. a programmer, solution provider, etc, and you went to the Microsoft site where you look for a Service Partner Referral, you would not be able to find someone who knows Visual Foxpro. You could find almost anything else, but VFP is not in the list.
We were on the phone for quite a while today trying to find out how to get leads from Microsoft and were ultimately told that the reason was that there have not been enough requests to have VFP in the list.
So....
We would appreciate it if you would pass this information around and maybe contact Microsoft to get VFP included in the list. Here's the url for 'Hire an Expert'

solprov@msprograms.com
and ask that Microsoft Visual FoxPro be added to the referral list.....
