Does anyone else feel that the VFP Online Docs leave much to be desired? Sure, the content is great, but the document engine is laughable. It doesn't support the MS Wheel mouse. So, you are forced to use the arrow buttons for scrolling. Use the keyboard down arrow, you say? Nope. There's a bug that once you release the down-arrow key it won't work anymore until you click on the frame you are trying to scroll again.

The printing is kludgy. Any graphics found in the documents are printed poorly or not at all. Attempting to work around it by copying and pasting into Word sounds like a good workaround, right? Nay. For some reason when you copy text and graphics, only the text is copied. You can't copy any of the graphics.

Oh, to top all this off, I regularly get GPF's using it. Where do I want to go today? To the bookstore to get printed documentation.
