Hi Bill
I afraid you may have missed my situation. I write applications, not do work
in VFP. It is those application that are being hit by idiots that listen to
M$ "use net" talk. And I can no longer fight it.

Hi Bill,
Like you, I sell a suite of proprietary products built on a huge code
base of FPD, FPW, and VFP code.
