What's New in Nine : Visual FoxPro's Latest Hits

Visual FoxPro 9 introduces change in a number of areas. As you've probably heard, the biggest enhancements are to the Report Designer. The list of new features is incredible: multiple detail bands, built-in output to HTML, XML, and image files, object protection, an improved user interface, extendible Report Designer, extendible run-time features, design-time captions and tooltips, GDI+ rendering ... there are so many new features, it takes three whole chapters of the book just to cover them all!
