Ah, that explains a *lot*. Some of the Delphi fanatics are certainly
religious about it. I went to the lab at ICon after Alan's web
session, and was talking to John Frazier about how cool it was, and
how fast it was, and a couple of Delphi Trolls over at some of the
machines just looked up and sneered when I mentioned that it was done
with Visual dBASE. I asked what that was about and they said what
you'd expect "That old software?" To which I responded "Have you
bothered to even *look* at it lately?" and they shut up ... amazing.
You try to confront them and they just don't wanna deal with it ...
