>Data corruption in VFP? I have used FoxBase and VFP for nearly 20 years, and it has happend twice, both times caused by power failure. You have more or less total control over this, there is absoluely no reason to blame VFP.
well, I don't have that many years of FoxPro experience, its only 15 years, but my experience tells me something else. IMHO, if there is one reason to blame VFP then its because of the continuos danger of getting corrupted indexes and/or tables. I met corrupted indexes/tables almost everywhere and for many reasons. Sometimes users missbehaviour, sometimes all kind of hardware malfunctions. But thats not only a VFP problem, its a problem of all file/server based databases.
But I agree, its definetly no reason to go to VB! <s>
