Sam if you want my advice you should stop trying to compare cH or .net to VB ands try to findout how u can do in c# the things you where use to do in VFP, instead of that learn the language and think in an abstract way what you want to achive, once you know that and are certain of the steps you need to do then you look into the language and see how you can do it.
For some reason in school even before you learn any language you learn how to lay down ur program in pseudo code or in fluxogram way (not sure if in english u say it the same way).


>>>-Where can I go lookup to learn how to use all the cool fucntions like ALLTRIM(), TRANSFORM(), STRTRANS(), ATC(), DATE(), DATETIME() etc.... I know these are all VFP function, but are there C# versions of these?

>>I reccomend looking through the source code to see how things can be done in .NET. (almost) all the good old VFP functions can be found in this tool kit.
