>Bad thing - being relegated to doing maintenance on existing VFP apps!

Jeff;

As a consultant, I made a good living fixing Visual FoxPro applications that did not work. That is good! What is better is I received large ($$$) add on contracts each time I fixed someone elses code. By doing a good, quick job I was able to earn a good deal of money.

This topic of Visual FoxPro Books is a reality that involves marketing. If we are content to have Hentzenwerk Publishing publish the vast majority of visual FoxPro books, then all is well. If we want more visibility, that is more books on bookshelves, we have to do something different.

We complain (some of us) about Microsoft's lack of marketing for Visual FoxPro. What about book publishers?

By the way the books from Hentzenwerk Publishing (and others) are great.

Have a great day.

Tom
