Pros:
- More stable
- New features

It doesn't work any better or any worse with VSS or Crystal Reports than VFP 7.0. Your apps should convert to 8.0 just fine. You may have some minor issues, particuarly with grouping in SQL SELECT, but it's easy to fix. Check out Behavior Changes in the VFP 8.0 help file (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/en-us/dv_foxhelp/html/fogrfBehaviorChangesSinceVisualFoxPro70.asp?frame=true)

>Hello,
>I am interested in upgrading from VFP 7 to VFP 8. Can somebody give me some advice/advantages of VFP 8 over 7? Does it work better with Visual SourceSafe 6? Also, how does it work with Crystal Reports? Will my 7.0 apps convert to 8.0?
