If you are using Strataframe, you are locked in VB .Net. User interfaces are easier to build in VB .Net than C#, but it lacks some of the features of C#. Watch out, because rumor has it that MS's long range plan is to make VB the next legacy platform.

Yes, 3 months is not enough to become an efficient coder. It is enough to see what can be done, and where you can go with C#. It is enough time to realize that we cannot pour the salary base into a C# application that would be required. I can produce a VFP product sooner, with less cost, and with the same functionality as a C# application. I can use the same backend as does C#. By analogy, you will have to sell your "hammer" to your customer for $25 bucks, I can deliver my hammer for $15. They both will drive the same nail with equal grace.
