>>Is VFP ever going to use the .net framework controls? A big undertaking of course but maybe it'd be worth the effort?

Well yes I think so. In other words I'd like to be using the textboxes, editboxes, forms, etc that are used by everything else (C#, VB.NET, Delphi, etc.) Doesn't mean it has to use the same development IDE as VS.NET - just the same classes.
Dont get me wrong here, each release of VFP is better than the last one - but at the same time with each release it's slipping farther away from the rest of the development world. I'm not going to be able to keep pushing VFP to my clients when it's incompatiable with everything else. If nothing else perhaps it'd be possible to get a bunch of VFP guys together and make our own .Net compatable VFP language? Something like what Borland has done with Delphi - I understand it uses the .net framework now too???
