Unfortunately, Kevin Goff will not be able to speak at Southwest
Fox. Fortunately, Mike Feltman has
agreed to step in and give a session on error handling in Kevin's
time slots. Attendees who were registered for Kevin's preconference
session on Crystal Reports will be given the opportunity to choose
another precon or get a refund (assuming it wasn't the free precon
from registering early).

A couple of very cool demos will be shown at the Southwest Fox 2007
Keynote presentation, Thursday, October 18, at 7:00 p.m. Toni
Feltman will show .NET Extender for VFP and VFP Compiler for .NET
from
eTecnologia.net and Christof Wollenhaupt will demonstrate
Guineu.
Both of these are gaining a lot of attention in the VFP community.
Although they're similar in concept--they allow you to run VFP code
in .NET--they are very different in implementation. Be sure to
attend this exciting session to see how these products may affect
your future development efforts.

Dave Aring of
Visionpace
has created a very cool session scheduling application called
Kokopelli (the name of the figure with the flute in our logo). It
automates the selection of the sessions you want to see and even
creates a handy printed schedule that fits in your conference badge.
Download the ZIP file and extract it in its own directory, then
run Kokopelli.EXE; it requires that VFP 8 or 9 be installed on the
system. Although it's very intuitive, it also includes instructions
on how to use it.
