Hi Allen:

The ";" thing is *not a bug*, is the FoxPro line continuation, so using

this you are explicitly indicating that next line is continuation of the

actual line. In VB "_" symbol is used, and nobody complains about that.

it's explained under "Basic Programming Concepts" chapter:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/x2456k7z%28v=vs.80%29.aspx

You should read the docs of the language you program before saying

something is "a bug"

Regards.-
