After working with VFP, VB and other RAD tools using a text editor or Visual Interdev seemed like a step backwards to dBase II. Code is created by the pound or ream. Is that progress?

Good points Mike. That is what I want to hear! YAG took FoxPro up one giant step through his efforts. I really enjoyed Codebook 2.0 (such a small book and what power!), Codebook 2.6 and 3.0.
