So if less lines of code is NOT a measure for productivity then what is, according to your book?

Since the question of this thread started with how to get a macro substitution in C# it seems to be important, at least to the person asking the question. Who are you to judge that?

FWIW, during my stay in Prague last week I had that question several times, is macrosubstitution available in VFP.Net? All from different persons.
