>>Many of us, inculding myself, learned foxpro by debugging and enhancing applications written by someone else. And although I have a BS degree in CS, foxpro is the only language I've ever used professionally. Many of the annoyances listed in this thread I use all the time because that was the way I learned from someone else. I think a lot of you guys had a background in c where effeciency is god and iif's don't exist.
