>You will not use a new tool because it takes time to learn it? Is that what you are saying? My main point to the OP was that he wasn't really being fair to himself by giving up and returning to VFP after only looking at .NET for three months.

No, thats not what I'm saying at all.
I am saying that I havn't seen the advantage I will get if I switch to .Net that make it worth investing a large chunk of my time (yet). When I was discussing the .Net path with my boss for our next major revision, he asked

What advantages .Net would supply our company that we currently cannot do in VFP. The few things I thought of were weak.

Then he asked,

Why should I commit sizable amounts of time/energy to rewrite in .Net without an compelling reason? What is the Risk/Reward?

Why indeed....
