>>As one of those from the dark ages, I've been wondering who done it. Personally, I LIKE the fact that Fox is not a strongly typed language. There is very little that torques me off more than cranking along in C and need to do some debugging and throw some debugging variables in a forget to 'predefine' them.

Really, trust me......I can wait! I am already having way too much fun trying to figure out how to do some of the stuff my users' want without having to worry about typing variables!
