>Can you tell us which formats will be available out of the box? I think we've been told XML and HTML, but are there others? Also, do you expect the quality of these to be higher than what is available now? The various tools we now have for converting FRX's are usable, but they don't compare to Crystal's output, for instance.

What is listed at http://msdn.com/vfoxpro/letters (including archived letters) is all that we are announcing about VFP 9.0 at this time. The output is using the new hooks in the VFP 9.0 report writer, so it will be far better output than is in VFP 8.0. You will be able to try this all out yourself when you download the free public beta of VFP 9.0 this June.
