Hiya GeoTrail! Long time no see!
We're on the verge of the "VDS 7" rollout to coincide with the "Windows 7" rollout. We're having a party here to celebrate the events.

I'M KIDDING@!!!! LOL!!!
In fact, the Mayan calendar specifically stated that VDS would be dead by the year 2012, but I believe they were off a few years.
As far as I know, we haven't seen or heard from Emmanuel or Commercial Research in years now. I fear that VDS 6 was the last of it's kind.
Other than that, there are still some dedicated users frequenting the forums trying to help out with any problems might drop by the forums with, but even questions from users are far and few now.
I even attempted to resurrect the "Word Association" thread, but it died out quickly too.
But I just can't seem to dump VDS from my arsenal. I keep coming back to it for those quick and dirty jobs that I don't want to spend months on in any other language. So VDS is still alive and kicking for me and will be until a version of Windows comes out that completely kills the ability to use VDS on it. _________________ 'What you do not want done to yourself, do not do to others.' - Confucius (550 b.c. to 479 b.c.) |

That is such a freakin' shame.
I too still use VDS to write a small app really really fast.
Right now I'm creating a small app for my 6 year old son who is learning math.
I personally think Commercial R. killed VDS with the pricing.
Have you seen the pricing on their site? Price: $499.00 for the "ultimate edition". Well, off course, you get "3 free sessions of Premium Level Support", oh and printable pdf manual. What a shame.
I think they should "give" away the whole source to someone who can actually keep it alive, and not only that, make money from it in the long run, not just for 3 months as they did.
I am actually very pissed of at how CR absolutely destroyed this great tool. _________________
