I missed it ... perhaps others did as well ... 

Your reply goes exactly to the root of my post, I am trying to gather 
general input from prospectively interested parties.  If this project does
not suit you, you simply ignore it.

Imagine that every writer out there stops writing simply because there are
other people writing ... or worst yet, we chose not to learn because some
one else already knows it ... ???   By the way, I am not saying that I am 
a writer or anything near that, I simply believe that yours is the wrong
position and one should NOT do something simply because some has already
given it a try.

Am I to believe that the work John did is the final word?  Is there nothing
beyond that?  No one should dare do unless never done before?  I did not
know John had done such thing and I am not intending to measure myself to
him nor his work.  Every one knows he's the bigger man.  Let this project be
what it is truly intended to be and for those that may be interested in.

This is the attitude that has plagued the filePro community and I hope it
changes.

Please note that what I am trying to do here is to bring people together
not to set them apart.  I am trying to build a place where we can all share
our interest in filePro and all things programming if possible, coupled with
a some other areas of interest.

I have received a couple of suggestions and I thank you all for your input.

Regards,
