The idea is to take a basic vfp data handling app, and see how it could be done (one of the ways anyway) in each language. Just viewing data, adding records, updating records, deleting records using Northwind in SQLServer or something similar. You don't like the idea? I don't see it as redundant because the idea is to give vfp developers an idea of how data handling could be done in both vb.net and c#.net. It may help them to decide which language to choose (if they are considering dotnet).



>>Thank you. I will check the links. Please see the top of this thread. My goal is still what I originally posted and I hope for that. 3 similar small apps.

Sometimes it is useful when you want to point at some specific difference, but to explain how things are done in .NET, you don't need it, and if you really prefer to read a sample in the other language, there are plenty of resources for translation like:
