I keep waiting for someone to mention the time VFP was a part of Visual Studio. If I understood correctly at one time Microsoft's vision was to support any number of languages even allowing mix and match all as part of VS. I had the impression that they were open to others porting languages to their environment. Does someone remember why VFP was taken out of VS or what would be involved in reinstating it? Joe
