Hi John,
Some VFP developers complain that their bosses and potential clients haven't heard much about FoxPro lately and don't think the product is being supported. If you'd take these eMail messages and forward them to your list of clients and potential clients they'll not only be up on the latest doings with FoxPro but they'll also think that you are too!
Besides, if you ever held a devcon in New Zealand I'd certainly consider going. Not only is New Zealand beautiful, but I've always wanted to meet that fox Lisa Slater!

If such people received an e-mail offering training in the midwest USA, they may well regard it as Spam- unsolicited advertising for a product they cannot use. This does not mean the service is rubbish.

>I agree, these forums allow many people to state their piece. I also agree with you that we need to be able to consider other viewpoints without "knowing" we are right every time. In this case, the extensive "publicity" means that e-mailing people on UT re services is clearly a sensible thing to do. Presumably this is the result we wanted.

Microsoft hears loudest what the VFP community says about Visual FoxPro by looking at the bottom line!
Support the product. Buy the latest version!
