>>Picked up a copy of "Using Visual Studio" by Que from a friend who got it at VBITS. Large book. Looked for Visual FoxPro reference. Found ONE on Page 14: "Visual FoxPro is not included in this book because it is a standalone database and cannot be used to create CPM components". This is not an exact quote but close enough.

>>Grrrrrrr. Doesn't anybody ever check these books for technical accuracy? As long as these types of "expert" books are published, VFP will never find a solid place in the world.

>Yup. I saw the same thing...then put the book back on the shelf at the bookstore.

By the way....noticed I typed "CPM" instead of "COM" ... must be an acid-flashback to the 70's and Digital Research :-)
