Actually, the question was who was attending their first Fox conference? Typically, at any Fox conference I've been to, the answer is about a third of the attendees. At this one, the first ever in that part of the country, it was more like half.

I don't think anybody asked how many were new to VFP in the last couple of years, or, more importantly, how many had come to VFP without starting in FoxPro or FoxBase.
