Looks like 2 out of the first 3 posts explained the behavior, and suggested workarounds. After he called this "an absurdity", _then_ the piling on started.

Some selected quotes from Fabio in this thread:

"Thanks, but this is one absurdity.
VFPT cannot put a little little flag for to inhibit this ?"

"I'm happy that someone knows the development and application concept.
This is a VFP design BUG."

"In-fact a Canadian Immigration Office
( on another UT Chatter past thread )
it write that VFP is not a developer application.
Considering this behaviour,
the Canadian office has found a reason for this affirmation."

"However the VFP destiny is marked,
i'm sure that VFP11 will not never exist."

Somehow, I suspect Fabio has never read How To Win Friends And Influence People. :-)
