Thanks for your reply. I am the owner of the book you co-authored and am finding it very useful!

There use to be an on-line Wiki which worked towards going through the list of subjects taken in the exam. Do you know if this is still active in this way.

Can I assume I can just fire questions on this forum to provoke dialogue.

I am fairly new to VFP. I have a degree which covers data modelling, programming in SQL systems analysis etc. I have experience in programming in Delphi. I am aiming to pass the MCSD ASAP. Hence the enquiry.
