No, but I bet his is bigger than yours...

>>>On a humorous side...

>>>Someone that knows someone that knows someone within a company where a guy knows someone working at MS was told that VFP 9 would be the last version.
>>>
>>>The demand is high enough. That is not the problem. The problem is the management of customers application. The fields for the version number is a numeric and it's been designed to handle 1 digit.
>>>
>>>Modifying the app would be something major. For many reasons. Not only because of the 1 digit that I mentioned but also because the app was designed with a mixture of Cobol, Fortran, RPG and LISP. They could'nt find developers willing to modify that app. Why would they. It's not in .Net and every developer knows by now that out of .Net there is no future.
>>>
>>>So then they could modify that app internally. There's another problem. Within MS developers are too young and nobody kever heard of those languages and also all the comments included in the app are in a mixture of Hebrew, Russian, Romanian and Spanish.
>>>
>>>So you understand now why we have'nt heard much about version 10.
>>>
