because windows is what we program for. VFP is windows and this list is VFP so we are bound to use windows. as for other comments, office is a standard so many people use it. also good to program to in VFP. though I do not think we need the latest version all the time. IE9 is better than FF in my opinion but then Im not a "Its microsoft I hate it" person Outlook is ok but live is free and almost as good. As for post office, not sure why anyone would use them. now here is another one for you, I hate google because they are liars and thieves. So Android get stuffed. Does not leave us with much choice for phones though. Mr Hilter's iphonies that work except as a phone. of course all this is my opinion of which i am entitled. Al

Open/Libre Office for undemanding requirements I'll give you. Outlook just for reading email I'll sort of give you. _______________________________________________ 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.
