>Uh, why a C programmer?

Mainly the ability to write DLL's. Also, if you can code C, you can do ANYTHING! I figure, with that hanging from my tool belt, I will always find a job, and make anything work. Don't get me wrong, I like the fact that in VFP you don't have to worry about the stuff you do in VC++, but if you want complete control of the PC, it's the only way to go, IMHO.

>Yes, my problem is I don't have God's attitude like you said. I'm too damned honest for my own good....

That would be my problem as well. I've seen lot's of consultants come and go around here (SAI) and a lot of them (MS Solutions Providers, no less) were telling me to ditch VFP for Access! Ya, right. Then they get huffy when you try to argue you're point. Translation, the only reason they recommend Access is because VB and Access is all they really know....
