>>5 - this is a stretch for him to know, but is there any longterm goal for the vfp coders. what marketing to they have planned for the VFP. Sometimes, just talking to others in the programming community, you get the feeling that VFP is not valid - and it comes up - every so often, that ms is dumping the product. and all that bull. how is MS going to, finally posistion VFP in the marketplace ? so the Coders like us who live and breath it, dont have to and wont have to hold our heads in shame evertime ms does something like - reverse their decision, to put us in the .net. in - out. We need to get VFP known for what it is. (not the stepchild of the MS) but as one valid solution as part of many solutions that MS fully supports.


A great question and oft asked, but danced around and the subject is changed by all that it is asked of, with exception of those who are not in a position to know. I can undersand loyalty to a brand, but would like to see some authoritive direction that we can hang our hats on.
