Craig S. Boyd on VFP & Vista

Craig S. Boyd [MVP] is back. He posted a blog entry showing off the new stuff he's working on under contract to Microsoft on the "Vista Toolkit" portion of Sedna (the next release of Visual FoxPro).

I have not had much of an opportunity to play with Vista as my home hardware is not up to it and at work we are slow to adopt as all big corporations are.

One thing I liked is his showing off the new Vista dialog windows and how you can leverage them to give your VFP app a more modern look. Even the old Windows MessageBOx() has been deprecated and replaced with an OOP COM object that you can fully control (see Craig's samples).

Good stuff.
