>>Some developers told me that they went to devcons when you were there and how good you were. You developed the Class Browser and the Component Gallery. So without really knowing you but from what I heard I thought when you got that marketing job for VFP that you were going to kick some a**es because you really know VFP and you'll know which buttons to push make it a successfull development tool.

>About once a year, someone like yourself tries to start a campaign to get Microsoft to market VFP more. The only result is that things remain the same, and it takes time for you to realize that your expectations are too high. These threads only make people using VFP consider moving away from VFP, so in my "personal" opinion, you are doing more harm than good by contining to hammer away at this dead-end topic. Re-read old messages here on the UT over the past few years to see threads just like this.

What more could I really say. The thing is that it's nice to be able to use the tool I really need and not to be forced to change to the tool others say I need. Long live VFP!

'til the next time ken <g>
