>I'm in complete agreement. As I've posted in the past, I have personally benefited from his breadth of knowledge in VFP. I was fortunate to participate in training conducted by John a few years ago and it was absolutely some of the best IT training I have received. He was also very generous with his time and has provided a lot of support online. Whether others chose to start, participate, or end personal disagreements with him online I do not care. It is a sad state of affairs when individuals' personal feelings overshadow peer support and professional knowledge in the field. In my opinion he contributed a LOT to the VFP community and many benefited from his contributions.

Hi Tracy,

I'm sure John is an OK guy in person and good trainer too. I just don't see that online, and would not speculate on why John feels he needs to assert himself over other people here. (for the most part) If you follow the trail of the comings and goings (some official and some silent) that started back in 1998, you would see the pattern too.

I'd personally think more of him if he would use this knowledge to help instead of to bully people around. That's just my POV of course,

Cheers,
