Hi Ken,
The one thing a posted bug list would do is prevent some developer out there from repeatedly smacking his/her head into their desk trying to figure out why something that shouldn't be happening IS. I normally use the knowledgebase for such things, but VFP8 has minimal (if any) entries there. If Microsoft keeps all the bugs to themselves a bunch of developers end up chasing their tails - ending up in situations others have already found themselves in and out of. If there was an "issue" list (to get away from the term "bug"), we would have a place to check to see if others have felt our pain and found workarounds to deal with it.
