Hi Tracy,

As Ken said, look at the conference reports. But I will mention the two things shown at DevCon 2001 - autoincrementing fields and pageframe tab placement. There's two.

There are many, many other features of VFP8. VFP8 will be a very significant upgrade. If I was still in the developer world I would be salivating.

Just stall for 2 weeks (lol). After (and I'm sure, during) DevCon, all will be revealed and I think you'll be able to make a convincing argument to the pennypinchers.

>Just wondering if it is possible that converting reports to html or pdf are planned features of VFP8? I now there are tools available to do this, but some development languages have these features included (i.e. Delphi) and it would be great for it to be included in VFP.

>Having a list of features to be included in VFP8 would go along way in convincing management to budget for it next year instead of looking closely at other development languages instead.

>We are getting close (and some of us are there already) to the time when companies are setting their budgets for the next fiscal year.
