Hi Jay,

As you write, it would be completely stupid of Microsoft NOT to sell VFP9 as a seperate product. And since the guys at Microsoft are not stupid, the only sensible conclusion is that VFP9 WILL be sold as a separate product. And I also see absolutely no reason why there should be no upgrade offers, so he should not be so concerned about the investment his company must make. :-)

Don't believe it's a waste of UT space. I would want to know the same if I was told that it would cost $3200 for 3 versions of the product, regardless of why he needs 2 extra copies.

>>>I know that 9.0 it not available yet. I will surely upgrade when it is released. I am trying to justify 3200.00 to my boss. I can't imagine 3 new licenses of 9.0 would not be much more than 1800.00 or so. I am the only programmer here and I feel that this is over kill.
