Bill,

Thanks for the kind words. Chicago FUDG is an outstanding group of developers and it's always a treat to do a presentation there. Thanks for the hospitality (and the pizza!).

-Rick

>It was a fun meeting. I found it interesting to hear that Delphi is a preferred tool for many, like Rich Simpson and the INNO author, who write system tools. And it was a kick to get anecdotes from various members. Examples: two new members one of whom spoke about using Fox Pro for pixel by pixel analysis of photos to detect changes in a trailer's load, the other telling how his fox-powered system give weather station data to pit crews of drag racing teams for last minute mechanical adjustments. Simpson's report engine with it's preview and PDF generation from FRX looks like it will go far.
