Ahh.. Ok.. Well, as Ken has said there are other features not yet made public. I'd wait and see before making that kind of decision.

Right.. I understand your reasoning. In our case we're still distributing VFP 6 runtimes. We'll go to v7 shortly but not until we're ready to switch everyone over... Since we control both sides it's kind of up to us. Shortly we'll want some of the new v7 features so that's probably when we'll do the field upgrades. The back end server is all v7 now but since we're squirting data over the Internet we're cool... Essentially a real-life upgrade-as-I-go scenario. <s>
