You're entitled to your opinion, Peter. I'm sure the VFP team are reading this thread so I'm sure your ideas will be given due respect.
Fortunately for us, VFP 9.0 really has busted report preview wide open in terms of what creative people will be able to implement and hook into the product and their applications. I guarantee that you'll see some drop-in replacements that remedy the deficiencies of the current xbase preview application.
Will you be going to the Frankfurt conference in November?
