Thank you, Tracy, for your quick response. We have two concerns in regard to a framework, (1) speed and ease of development, (2) and a ready supply of framework developers, when necessary.

Since we do not know many VMP developers, we assume that there aren't that many in S. Calif. Although I see that VMP is a great product, I just am concerned that if we needed VMP developers in a hurry, that we would not be able to find them economically.

I can see that VMP is easier to use than Visual MaxFrame, but I am not sure about its (VMP's) depth.

I have already reviewed the comparison chart on wiki several weeks ago, and made up my mind at that time to go with MaxFrame. But, I suppose my mind can be unmade as well, if something can do that.
