Hi Abb:
Sorry about such a long ABBsence.  
Glad to hear about your purchase of VFP5.  I truly believe that is where the
future lies.  From what I've been hearing (from those who should know), the
prediction I made for the fall of 1998 will possibly come true in 1997:
   Microsoft will package VFP, VB, VC++ and VJ++ together.
Currently, packages have vied for attention as having some tool or other
that the others lacked.  Even packages from Microsoft.  This will not only
give you the best tools for any job, but the whole workshop as well!  I'm
betting on Microsoft to finish out the century.  (Don't let me down, Bill!)
Good to hear from you, Abb.  I wish you well.
David in Dallas.
