free access to fpweb, fpnotes, and an automatic help file maker only to
have them ignore them because they didn't want to support them or have a
(vastly) inferior product to sell. </DIV></FONT>

conference</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV><FONT size=+1><FONT face="Courier New, Courier, monospace">I
was told by Dave Stauble of Sound Ideas that he was not allowed to present at
the filePro conference because his Reface product is a competitor to filePro
GI.<BR><BR>I don't know how other people may feel, but as the GI product is so
limited, something like Reface may be the only glimmer of hope to keeping
filePro alive in the GUI world. I, for one, would love to see a
presentation from third party vendors like Sound Ideas. I have already
concluded that fpgi will not suit my needs, and banning them from the
conference will not change my mind. I don't see Reface as a competitor,
I see it as an enhancement.<BR><BR>Any comments on
this?<BR><BR><BR><BR><BR></FONT></FONT>
