Hi Ed (and all you hundreds of thousands out there just itching to post to this forum <g>),
like any other software standard, different versions are prone to popup when no consistent or unified communication is established between users of the software - take Java as the perfect example.
With <b>lots</b> of folks using the Codebook methodology, I wonder how many different flavors are out there, and is there any way to standardize changes? I use <a href="http://www.foxgang.net/neon">Neon's</a> Visual FoxExpress, which is based on the Codebook, but I'm sure it is different from others.
Is this a realistic consideration? What will happen when FoxPro 6 comes out? Codebook will have to be changed, I'm sure, to work with that.
Or does it even matter?
This forum and the newsletter released by <A href="http://www.savvysolutions.com">Software Assets of Virginia, Inc. (SAVI)</A> is the first I've seen of a step towards a public "standard" for Codebook.
Wha'cha all think?
Best,
