>Doug, tried to email you back from work but my connection died (a slow death). I'll send it Monday, basically said 1)Our response should have been in the Are the days of the Corporate VFP Developer over?* 2)I'm tired of hearing responses saying If your good you'll find work (Since we can't all work for the few companies planning new apps in VFP) and 3) Let all work to come up with ideas to reverse this slide in VFP opportunities.

Good thoughts. Well, I am a corporate Developer (Former independent) and of you have the contacts, you get the work,right?
My employer is the consultant, and can afford separate maketing, accounting people and HR staffs. Just allow me to be a developer without having to wear all those extra hats. What I would like to see, is a joining of forces between corporate developer staffs, and some of the independents. Addiltional experience and skillsets do look good on the resume.
