>Wow - that is a tasteful GUI. Until this point, I was just running little PRGs and COMs (no GUIs) and reading the help files. I wrote a little demo GUI and was left a little breathless. With all the other stuff VFP 8 has to offer, I did not even consider the look and feel of the form and control presentations. Just needed to say - it looks great! Cudo's fox folks! Thanks.
I made a simpler test that blew our minds off here.
Our apps have a quite complex architecture where a single BizObj instantiate a lot of child objects. This is particularly heavy in an option that used to take about 25 seconds in VFP 7 due to the vast tree of objets.
I just recompiled the module where this option is and the related components. No single line of code was changed. I tried that option and it took a couple seconds to instantiate.
Now that's *really* cool! 8-)
