John,

My problem really with ADO in VFP is that it does not work just like a cursor so I could use it as a recordsource in Grid controls. I like VFP's grid behaviour and functionality very much than that of VB. What I want to see (I don't if possible) is that ADO should work just like a cursor to get rid of Looping into it to get the data for display in spreadsheet manner (grids so to speak).

>>And so what particular language in .Net will you preach then?

>VB and C#, with a preference for VB...
That's my first impression because you've been known to be good in VB. On a personal note, how's your Law studies? Still going?
