>So the whole economic infrastructure makes it difficult to purchase VFP and other software. OK, another question if you don't mind: Do you think the price makes a big difference in whether or not someone is going to purchase or copy VFP?

No, of course I don't mind additional questions.

I believe the price makes a difference, to a certain degree. Of course, people, or companies, would prefer to buy software if it is cheaper than another one. But on the other hand, many people/companies would try, as a first choice, to get either software that is completely free, or pirated.

The latter option (piracy) is gradually being phased out, especially for companies, because of stricter controls.

But a personal, and very general, impression - consider them as my own opinions. I don't have any "hard data" to back them.

HTH, Hilmar.
Difference in opinions hath cost many millions of lives: for instance, whether flesh be bread, or bread be flesh; whether whistling be a vice or a virtue; whether it be better to kiss a post, or throw it into the fire... (from Gulliver's Travels)
