Mike,

>Yeah, it "seems" narrow but thats cause I had a brain fart.

I knew your argument didn't smell quite right. :-)

(That reminds me of the famous quotation from reformer Martin Luther about the "stink" he was raising over certain practices of the Catholic church: "If I f*rt in Wittenberg, perhaps they will smell it in Rome.") That may not be an exact quote, but it's something close to it.

>But I do think that if you need a private dataseession and you want to do it visually, there should be no problem with using a Form.

I haven't played enough yet with COM+ or VS7 IDE, but I think Craig in another message raised valid issues about some features being limited to code contained in PRG's. I believe the creation of Middle Tier projects inside the VS7 IDE is going to be PRG-only. I'm not sure about the "debugging inside the VS Shell" feature -- it may be PRG-only also.

Perhaps someone else can clarify?
