Impressive....to the extent that a bunch of complaints were received and that within the span of 48 hours, the language of the case study was softened.

The softer language aside - the case study says the same basic thing. In the end - it was a 100% Fox app that is now primarily .NET/SQL Server with some vestages of Fox in COM MTDLL's.

Can those that complain assume that going forward, WHENEVER Fox gets short shrift in the eyes of some - you will be just as receptive and act upon those complaints as you have done here?

All I can say is congrats to those who complained - who put forth a grass roots effort to get the case study changed - within 48 hours or so I might add.

This indeed may be a first....

Again, congrats to those of you that complained and greased the wheels that influenced Ken to do this.

As long as you all are around to keep the flame burning - the Fox will remain. From this day forward, you will never see me write another word advocating that people eschew Fox in favor of .NET. I was wrong. MS clearly is endorsing Fox as a viable platform to invest in - and Ken is front and center on that message. I am looking forward to the other positive events that are sure to come down the pike - such as the new case studies.

Simply put - I stand corrected and will eat my crow - medium rare...
