You think that the sheare volume of Foxpro blogs is what keeps the index so high? I'd guess that there is more in C# blogs in a week than VFP for a month. My guess is that it is just an agent that reads every want ad on the web and totals up your other experience that could be useful. That would give Java the high marks it gets as well as VFP and Delphi. It is in no way an indication on activity for said language. This is all a WAG on their algorithm. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer First Horizon Bank Memphis TN 901.246-0159 _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
