>Not sure people here know why there are 17 and 24, respectively, or how the topics were picked. Whil wrote these lists when the CompuServe forums were _the_ place to go for FoxPro support. When he wrote the 2.x questions, FoxForum had 17 numbered sections--each question corresponds to the topic for that section. By the time he wrote the VFP questions, CompuServe had gone up to 24 sections per forum, so there are 24 questions, again each corresponding to the section topic. That's why the last question in each list is silly stuff--the last section was always Chatter. (That's, of course, also how the Chatter section here got its name.)

Interesting, thanks for the background, Tamar.
