Thanks, Fernando, but I really am not qualified to write the article. I think that making the suggestion represents the extent of my contribution in this department. Strategically, such an article would be helpful to the promotion of VFP within Microsoft itself, which is a key objective. My central point remains, however, that our marketing endeavors are rendered ineffectual by Microsoft's damning omissions. Above all, we need some small, but visible action from Microsoft to fix this problem.
