Hello Brian, Would you mind advising what the main problems are with the SP2, as far as your project is concerned.

I am not sure what huge numbers of VFP developers in Hi Rick and PMFJI I suspect Michael is, like many others - me very much included - not looking at the glass as empty at all, but are just royally p***ed off with the way M$ has approached the whole SP2 thing. I have a major product currently on vfp8 that I'm all ready to roll out (and have promised my customers will be rolled out in Q1) with vfp9 - but which vfp9? At the moment sp2 has a couple of showstoppers (for me at least) and therefore the choice is sp1 or wait with fingers crossed to see if M$ actually do an sp2a or sp3. At the moment there are 'hints' that an sp2a _might_ be forthcoming (principally, I have to say, founded in the opinions/optimism that you and a couple of others closer than most to M$ have expressed). But why on earth can't they (M$) just tell it straight - will there be another sp and if so when? As a matter of interest, have you or anyone you know actually asked Milind Lele or YAG if/when there'll be another sp? -- Cheers ============ Brian Abbott ============ [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ 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.
