There will be those who'll argue that using that flexibilty may be a bad practive. As far as I can recall, I've used this exactly once. Never found a reason to use it at any other time. (Of course, we all know how "AR" I can be about my code< bg >).

Now the three thing I wish VFP would "steal" from VB are:

1. The editor. Automatic keyword expansion, spreads the code out (a=b+c automatically becomes a = b + c), real time syntaxing.

2. A post test iteration structure. I hate having to simulate one. (Well, I said I was "AR" about my code< s >)

3. The ability to create a structure.
