I've been working with FoxPro since 1991, so spare me your motto. This thing alters the binaries, and is therefore a hack in the classic sense of the term. Having said that I'm sure it's all fine and legit, if anyone wants to take a gamble on it.
Yeah, Koen...Alan's been here a long time and is well respected. Any alteration as he says is truly a "hack" but the mere words are not meant to convey anything nefarious or illegal (although I restate my surprise at M$ not objecting...but as we said, it's not the ballmer era anymore).
