>OK, Mike, why is it deafening? MS has never commented about future versions of software beyond what's currently available and, sometimes, what will be available soon. The fact that there will be a VFP 8 is pretty obvious - all you have to do is go to the Advisor website and see what DevCon attendees will get. As to future versions - it's silly to think there'd be information or comments on that before we ship VFP 8.
Gonzo,
Before you were "assimilated"< bg >, you and I had a conversation about a DevCon several years ago. At that particular event, there was no spoken indication of a next version, but it was obvious that one was in the works. To all DevCon attendees, I'd suggest keeping your eyes and ears open. Never know what you might find out.
