>>Yes. I'm saying that if VFP and maybe SQL is on your resume you shouldn't even bother applying for many of the opening

I would expect that many/most people here with VFP and SQL experience are eminently employable, though they may not feel a need to apply for every post they see.

I would also suggest that those who offer value purely from a technology option list are going to have their lunch eaten by offshoring. Without domain expertise you can be the best dotNET developer in existence but you're competing with Rod Paddock for the state-side design stuff and for development with a varsity graduate in Mumbai who accepts $15/hr for an 8-hour-day and works for 12 hours.
"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us.
"
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
