Hey I'm a die-hard VFP fan and all but dude that is ..ummm..not a very descriptive answer. As matter of fact it's tettering on the "lame" side.
How were these surverys disperced? Where these Microsoft surveys or some 3rd party independent surveys? Who got them...what all Microsoft customers? Perhaps Borlands survey results differ. What is the number of people serveyed? Hell how about ANY numbers?
Like I said I love VFP but Ken I just dont buy your answer here. The only thing you can back it up with is some kind of priviliged information that you wont share.
