I guess that could be true, for those who stayed with MS tools. After all, where else would they go, especially given the way MS 'markets' VFP???

I had understood that many gave up programming, others went to Delphi or other tools and other took the slap and went to Linux.

But I guess you missed Claude's point... that an earlier heart-felt suggestion by JVP was totally out to lunch. I.e., the opposite of "vindication".

That's one out of 2 in about 8 years, with the second still in doubt.
