Working on the VFP 9.0 product box (by Ken Levy)

  • 项目

I've been in meetings and on email threads this past week kicking off the process within Microsoft to create the new product (branding, packaging, rebates, etc) for Visual FoxPro 9.0. We are thinking of including a screen shot on the back of the box this time, probably a cool one of the report writer in action showing the design time surface with multi-banding next to the new preview window. We have lots of new features to chose from to put on the back of the box product highlights listing, but a 3D color object-oriented PuzzleX will not be one of them, unfortunately. Too many other so-called "important" features to add based on feedback to help build better VFP apps, so this one didn't make the list. :)

    How about FoxTris? That might sell a few extras...

    I'd include a screen shot of the designer with multi-detail bands, along with a page of the actual report to show the output.

    Wow - excellent - but ?
    You gonna get a MS SKU number for this beastie as well? With your SKU Numbers in place early on - Distributors can order it to arrive on or about the RTM window, and in turn the Retails can get it in because the Distributors have a SKU #.

    John, re "the White Album" -- remind me to show you my DVD of the production of Man of La Mancha that I played clarinet in. :-)
