>I'm not sure if there is much to say. I took the VFP Certification test at a Drake Training center and MS sent me a piece of paper saying I was a Microsoft Certified Professional. (It was a bit wierd because from what I understand you are supposed to take at least to courses to get the MCP status. Hey, I'm not complaining.) The assesment tests are a reasonably good indication of the level of the test, although I found the actual VFP test harder. Personally, as far as tests go I think that it was a reasonably good test of someones knowlegde of VFP. I'm afraid I can't tell you the cost as the ATEC I contract for paid for my test.

My company paid about $200 for my VFP test. The test was good enough, though less interesting than answering questions here.
