Hi Simon,

Well, like Ken said at the keynote, Stability is a Feature. We're being very, very aggressive with bugs.


>It seems most of my wishlist has been answered by VFP8's new features and fixes. I am looking forward to getting my hands on it. I just hope that the fixes and new features do not introduce new problems so that I am actually further ahead with a more reliable product.

>>>You can simply create two forms with private datasessions using the same table with an index in ascending order. When you issue:
