Hi Craig
you was all of my hope, <s>

It seems to me that I'm not to happy with this release. There are a lot nice looking gadgets like this "docking" ,tasklist/bookmark which losts the related line on insert - but not on delete and so one. Useless. I waste a lot of time to start things working but they don't.
On the syntax side - Since we do standalone VFP systems all the COM and Internet stuff makes no sense to use.
The RowColChange propery for grids I put a lot of anticipation in and it is the same rubbish like before.
We are not sure to upgrade all our systems to this version, excecpted the UNC support on GETDIR() and the setup looking a little bit better I don't see a reason for 7.0. The most new commands look like they are needful for intellisense - and this is a matter of taste. (After a couple of years I have an idea of syntax - eh?).

All the work for GETDIR(), DISKSPACE()etc. is long done with API access and we need only one installer instead of a new VFP for each computer...

What is left?
Dataprocession seems to be faster.
I found a use for ShowInTaskbar Property
ASTACKINFO() / ATAGINFO() / ASESSIONS() may improve may errorhandling.
DISPLAYPATH() - ok this one I like but again, there is still some code doing the same thing ..

>>Hi Craig, this works wit 2 out of 5 I've arranged Command to bottom and Properies / Datasession / Dokumentview linked together docked to left. Command will always be restored. Depending on what "pager" was topmost at closing, this one will be restored - the other two are not linked, not docked, not visible and when switched to visible somewhere within _SCREEN.
