How did they kill it? Is it no longer working? Or has the quality of other developer tools open source or non lured developers away from VFP? >> In our industry you have to take change for what it is worth.

Would you expect the owner of FoxPro to in essence rewrite it to achieve the new features you want / expect? This would take into consideration the 2 gig limit and other bla bla bla. If they did that would that bring people flooding back? Why hasn't Paradox who is developer owned made the same stampede back to being the best tool for developers? Because the tool is dated to it's origin in base design and features. -- Stephen Russell Sr. Production Systems Programmer Web and Windows Development Independent Contractor 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.
