Make all Foxpro Commands available, just kidding. My real question is "Are you going to continue to develope the toolkit past version 2.0?"

To me, foxpro is straight forward in its command structure. The ToolKit sounds like a good product. When is 2.0 scheduled to begin / release?

Gripes!!!!!! Wonder it I should send it or not! I guess I'am just getting old.

I would like to see someone develop an App Acellerator. Good Wizards that really generate an excellant Application Framework, Login, Security, Menues, Window Forms with Query Fields, Grids, data entry with (ListBoxes, ComboBoxes, Text Boxes, with editing and formatting etc.) that all work well to genrate an application. Lets you make changes, add code were needed, and then regen it. We seem to be always developing new stuff and leaving the stuff behind without fixing it.

We can a long ways with windows but we still Add the Data, Find the data, Edit the Data, Delete the Data, Report the Data. Thats what we all have been doing for many years. We may rename it but after all a 8 bits is a byte and a dime is a dime. 20 years ago 3rd parties had tools to make it easy to do just that. Where are they today. I seem unable to find a simple product that do that using .net framework.

Alpha Five, Access 2002, FileMaker where's your versions that work with .NET Framework? I know its not easy but it can be done using the .net framework as the base.

I've been in the computer field for 35 years and I still have to write code for standard stuff. What a bummer! Don't get me wrong, .net is great, I think. But were can I purcahse a good App Gen for .NET?

Thanks
Roland
