>>I maintain an order system for a plastics company written in Foxpro 2.0. I am currently researching possibilities for upgrading the application to a Windows environment. I would appreciate any advice or opinions with regards to Visual Foxpro as well as Access97, Visual Basic, or Delphi. We currently have 22 tables in the system the largest of which is about 35,000 records. There are about 15 users using Netware Client32. SQL server or something similiar may be considered in the future. We don't have WindowsNT just Windows95. The users find the application very slow so I'm looking for speed as well as something which doesn't have a large learning curve. I am familiar with Access and Powerbuilder. Thanks for any input.

Thanks Wayne
We definitely want to go to a windows based application. Can you elaborate on the bug in FP2.0 when accessing data through Client32?
