Walter,

To me, your comment here is in a way deceptive...

>2. You've tried to talk people into VB6 because VFP would die soon. Fact: VB 6 is dead and VFP could not be more alive than today.

VB6 is dead but VB in general will live longer than VFP :-). I am looking at VFP as dead man walking today... And I don't know if there is a miracle coming for it to ressurect. VFP8... I don't know if MS can get significant no. to upgrade once release because at that time majority of VFPers will be comfortable with C#.Net or worst case VB.Net, or other languages. I might be wrong though. Try to be open minded and you will feel what's really happening in the development arena.

I haven't heard any MS sponsored VFP technical session. Not even here in any part of ASIA. Good thing there are some in CANADA, US, LATIN AMERICA but looking at it overall, VFP session is nowhere to find. Simply because MS don't want put $ on it to attract new blood.
