These are important skills, too. > I'd prefer a book mostly showing the exciting things one can do with VFP, > and expanding 'legacy' VFP applications. Well, let me know how your book writing goes.

My most successful applications use a lot of third party software, from web serving to office automation to graphics and GIS!
