> Totally agree with you, just feel a little disappointed right now :o(

Maybe, but viewed objectively this is no surprise at all. About the only thing that would make any sense for a "VFP 10" would be a complete re-write from the ground up to make it a full 64-bit application. Given the revenue model for VFP (i.e. ZERO!!!), and the fact that Mcirosoft's preferred strategy is to sell SQL Server Licenses, that would make no financial sense whatsoever, and there really isn't (from Microsoft's perspective) a business case for a desktop database.

All applications are either browser based already or will become browser based and therefore run on ASP .NET and SQL Server. Nobody wants (or needs) LAN-based, data-centric desktop applications - at least, not in the Microsoft world.

Its only the tens of millions of business in the REAL world that do such stupid things!

Remember, Microsoft is NOT a software company, it is a Marketing company!
