>>As I read the current pricing I get an "upgrade" discount if I own VFP5, VFP6 or VFP7. I can get an additional discount by selecting the "DVD option".

>>So if I purchase a VFP8 upgrade when it comes out, then use THAT purchase to qualify for the MSDN "upgrade" price that save me MORE than the price of the VFP8 upgrade I end up with:

>MSDN Pro and higher levels include VFP 7.0, Visual Studio .NET, Visual Studio 6.0 (which includes VFP6, VB6, VisualInterdev, etc.), Windows versions, and other software. If someone needed VFP only, then MSDN may not be the best solution obviously. But most developers and companies some or all of these other products with VFP development. You should know that obtaining VFP via upgrade instead of MSDN Subscriptions is in now way a vote for VFP at Microsoft. Microsoft cares far more about how many VFP developers are using MSDN Subscriptions than via stand alone upgrades.

Ken - I am lost. I have VFP 7 - So which MSDN subsrciption should I get and how much is it? (taking into account all the available discounts). I also own the Office 2000 Developer edition.

Thanks
