Hi John
Very interesting article.
I have a question for you that has been nagging at me for some time.
I downloaded Visual Studio 2005 Express (for free) from MS, bought a couple of books, one on C# 2005, the other on VB 2005. Both books from Murach so they're good books. I have played around a little with the .Net Framework, just to get a feel for it.
And I'm wondering, "what does the .Net Framework provide for a programmer that is not already available with VFP 9 + a Framework of your choice?"
