Maybe you see more deep the true reality than I. But it is not my problem how to make such version. My problem is find $$$ to buy a product. I do not understand you also. How as customer can you justified such omissions like lack of evaluation version. Did you relly think that in such way you can help to improve the product ? If Fox team realy have such limited resources as you suggest... so maybe it is true that I am stupid staying wit VFP.

>>I need to test VFP8 without paying. I do not want to work with BETA .
>>Why something that is quite common in software industry (see VS.NET see DELPHI etc etc etc) can't be done in case of VFP. It seem SO EASY. I do not understand. I do not understand. Such things make me feel more and more like stupid staying with VFP ?
