Hi Hilmar
>I am quite interested in learning .NET - the work market seems to require lots of .NET programmers. I should quickly add that I am not going to betray VFP <g> - I will probably continue working with it for many more years, but I do think I must learn additional technology.
True.
>This book looks very interesting, especially since it compares .NET to something I know relatively well: VFP. But I am also seriously considering to register in a course, which starts next monday - learning a new technology on my own, without help from an instructor, might be very challenging.
Best of luck with your classes. I was impressed by your interest and knowledge in Astromony from what I read from various threads.
