Hmmm... sensible... I took your rather idiotic statement, i.e. "I'd have to say that the "majority" of VFP developers are absolutely NOT satisfied with the mixture of content..." and asked you what qualified you to speak for the "majority". You evaded the question, just like you always do. Nothing qualifies you to speak for anyone other than yourself. Go and whine some place else.

>>>You are 1 developer, and that you are satisfied is good but it does not invalidate my statement. Even if ALL the developers who frequent the UT were as satisfied as you it would still constitute a small minority of the VFP developer population.
>>>There are more VFP (and likely all languages) developers who do NOT use the internet for their additional enlightenment about their language of choice.
>>>Since the majority do not use the internet, that basically leaves magazines as an additional tool for themselves. And since computer-based only "articles" do not appear in magazines it follows that the majority have no idea of what's in the 'mixture' and so cannot possibly be satisfied.
