>Hi all!

CursorAdapter? Wow, it's cool. But have a look at Delphi for example. Its appropriate components allow you to do the same in TWO-THREE CLICKS since version 3 as I remember.

So don't buy VFP8 and switch to another platform. You didn't have to spend any money to view the beta, what's the problem?
