I got my personal copy of Visual Studio 6 with "an e-bay cheaper than could be believed deal" several years ago. Unfortunately, I suspect it's pirated, so I don't use it anymore. :( What did you do to ensure it was the real deal before you bought it? I don't trust those deals anymore because of that.

I'll suggest the MSDN to my boss.

Thanks,

Michelle


>Well the ONLY reason that I went the MSDN route was because it was an e-bay cheaper than could be believed deal. My figuring is that it gives me 'perpetual' "like new" (my term) development licenses for all kinds of products including VFP8. I'll likely have to buy full VFP9 when it comes out, assuming after expiration of my MSDN subscription at Feb. next year.
