From: Eduhlcfp@aol.com Sent: Friday, August 09, 2002 1:25 PM To: rule-comments@sec.gov Subject: File No. S7-25-99 To Whom It May Concern: I am opposed to the proposed rule, "Certain Broker-Dealers Deemed Not To Be Investment Advisors." The FPA requires all CFP's to adhere to similar standards of conduct based on the CFP code of ethics and Professional Responsibility. Without this "code" there will never be a recognizable financial planning profession. Please help us maintain our professional standards. Truely, Edward J. Uhl, CFP
