>> Quite honestly, when Ken responded to me the way he did, it got out of hand. As somebody you consider to be a valuable member of the community, I was taken aback when Ken said the very mention of my suggestion undermined the efforts of the team. I am not used to having a suggestion geting such hostile treatment... <<

It wasn't my intent to create any response like it did and it wasn't personal. You suggested that VFP7 overall had that makes it worth it for someone to upgrade, but if a service pack added one property to the grid control, it would then be worth the upgrade. I strongly disagreed with that logic and still do. If you make comments like that and suggest that new features be put in a service pack someday, there are some customers who may not upgrade to VFP 7 now and wait, only to find no new features in a service pack. That is what I meant by underminding the VFP marketing efforts. I hope this clarifies my points and my intents. Keep in mind that sometimes your suggestions appear to read more like demands, while sometimes my replies seem more personal than they really are.
