>So with all of the favorable beta-VFP7 talk on here, it seems like VFP7 "1.0" is worth switching to..... So what are the disadvantages (besides no MS support) to building something with it now?

Umm, besides the fact that it's still beta code, and I wouldn't want my customers doing MSFT's testing? Other than that, no, I see nothing wrong with building stuff with it. :-)

Play and test all you want, but there's no way I'd ship production code using 7.0, unless the customer was made well aware of the risks. I'd hate for one of my customers to find that data-eating, showstopper bug the hard way.
