Sorry, Russell...I don't use JVP's tactics in my discussions. I don't have any need to feel important nor belittle anyone. I was willing to give some weight to your "bug", but you declined my offer. You complained about no letter from Ken, and continued to complain when plausible reasons for him not posting one were given by several people.

I said nothing about publishing in any of my posts on this thread. However, I have authored articles dealing with things that people may or may not call bugs.

These articles don't discuss bugs being fixed, but rather how to deal with them, which, IMO, as important as saying "it's been fixed in version x.x" because not everyone is using an updated version.

My offer to help is still open. There are no strings attached to the offer. You simply package up the code, a description of the error, and the expected behavior. I'll do everything I can to see if it's been resolved in a later beta version.

>I was pointing out and discussing problems. You see it as whining because you want to belittle someone in order to make yourself feel important. It's nice that you participate in betas, but that's not for everyone and just because someone doesn't do it is no reason for you to invalidate their concerns. I have discussed these bugs with an number of people, some of whom have run into the same bug, and no one has called me a whiner. That is a highly insulting term and you're wrong to use it. When my daughter whines about something, it carries little, if any weight, with me. I am the adult and am in an authoritative and superior position to my child. When you accuse someone of whining, you strongly imply that you are the one in the authoritative, superior position and that the "whiner's" opinions are to be given no weight. You continued with the superior attitude by mentioning all the places that info about VFP 9 had been published, as if I didn't already know that. But I'd like
>you to show me where any of these articles deal with specific bug fixes. They may exist, but they're doubtless few and far between.

>I dealt you no insults at all in this thread - and, in fact, thought you were responding appropriately - until you took your insulting and arrogant tone. If you insult someone, then expect for that person to give you a piece of their mind. As for your comments (in another response) about me "name calling", you should note that you were the one that started it. And if you don't give me any help, I'll be none the worse for it, since it seems to come with a condescending attitude.
