Although i never fall into the "VFP is dead" trap, while laughing all my way to the bank using EXCLUSIVELY Foxpro and VFP ( yes, i still have 1 FP 2.5 app that makes a lot of money, and the customer just does not want to change it ), i would say i agree completely and absolutely with your post.
Not only i admired you already as a fellow VFP'er and a great help to the community, but you're in also for your character and personality.
For me, one guy like you balances 10 _____ ( put your prefered word here ) like Kevin and other 'hear hear the words of doom' sayers...

>Depends on what you understand from career and how good you're at one or the other. I don't know how it's interpreted exactly in English but in Turkish it's not solely bound to money making. From your perspective I know many people with a high career even though they can't even write their name.
>Kevin,
>Why do I feel you try to bash VFP on every opportunity? I know you worked with VFP and now doing .Net and good at it. If for a moment we think and accept .Net might be better than VFP in all areas, what does it matter? People are free in their choices. It'd be good if everybody could learn and use multiple tools/languages but still if someone is doing in pure VFP and having a life with it you should only respect it and give advices on what could be done with the other. In the meantime if there is a question regarding VFP and you know te answer you could help replying without trying to mean 'why do you do VFP', it's crap ... Do not judge people on tools/languages they use, just respect any programmer in the world, ethically all are your fellow peers.
