This weeks online Wednesday Night Lecture: MsdeVfp101 by CarlKarsten
Time: 0100 GMT (Thursday morning), 9pm UT (Eastern) time.
[NEW] Can someone confirm this please. My calculations are that during daylight savings in the Northern Hemisphere, UT is GMT-4, not GMT-5, so the WNL is on at 0100 GMT. There's often some confusion about this, but GMT does not have Daylight savings time adjustments made to it. -- AndrewCoates
Sorry about that. I keep forgetting that the rest of the world does not participate in these silly american customs. -- CFK
Many other countries do participate in daylight savings time. It's not just an American thing. Also, there are parts of the US that do not participate in DST. Hawaii, Arizona, and parts of Indiana come to mind.

A simple hands on example of using MSDE (or any back end really) with VFP. If time permits, we can talk about setting up the server and the few limitations of MSDE.
Last week a CertFox book was given out to a lucky chatter. Who knows what will happen this week?
