>>Besides, I did not call anyone who upgraded to VFP7 a fool, I wasn't that specific, I said any Microsoft product.

>... which includes anyone that upgraded to VFP7. :-) Seriouslly, I don't regret upgrading to VFP7 the moment I could. It sounds like you haven't upgraded. So I would know more than you would how painful the move was (I think I needed to add 4 or 5 commas to my code :-)

I prefer to err on the side of caution - I'll wait for a while yet - VFP6 is working fine for me, I've worked around the existing problems that affect me, I can profitably spend my time on other development work & wait to see what pans out.

As I said elsewhere, I expect VFP7 to be stable but will have some teething problems, I'll let someone else find them & wait for the fixes (or the workarounds). Possibly selfish, but as far as my clients are concerned, more effective use of their money.

(PS 'poor fool' is another common English phrase, usually used humourously - I was not meaning to offend)
