Mike,

>>Again, IMO, you're fighting an acedemical issue that has little value/application in real life in most cases.

>If you don't feel it is significant, then why do you constantly involve yourself in mdot discussions where you argue against mdot? Especially when your argument is completely based on your personal preference without any technical reason against using mdot?

Everyone has the freedom to respond on things that in their opinion should not be pushed down our throats. I took this liberty, because I find that there is more to say about it. And again it is not only based on MY personal preference, but also based on the personal preference of other well known and respected VFP developers.

And of course the voice of Fabio, who seems to be a the total other end of how I view seems to differ with the majority here. But from a purity standpoint of view, he might be the only one who is right here from a pure technical standpoint of view.
