For the record, and since KL's post was addressed to me:
- There was a "point" to this strand- whether VFP would be able to use the new XML field type at all.
- It is now clear that VFP will be able to use the XML field type.
- There was some confusion but it was cleared up.
IMHO KL has addressed the point 100% and as far as I'm concerned, that should be the end of it.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
