Was Rick Rick Strahl a VFP programmer? I always thought he was a few layers closer to the core than a run-of-the-mill developer like me. He marketed products for VFP developers (and other platform geeks). I have a hard time imagining Rick in a cube writing a VFP app. Maybe he'll break in and clear this up for us.
