I wonder if the creation of the UNIQUE type was a marketing idea, a developer suggested idea, or something else. I never saw the need for it. I expected someday to come across a problems that the use of a UNIQUE would solve, but I never did, or at least never consider using the UNIQUE as the solution. Oh well any good product, which VFP definitely is, has a few wrong turns in it.
