>I'll even go as far to say that, for me, the transition from FPW to VFP has been relatively easy. I haven't experienced the "steep learning curve" that has plagued many. I credit that to the understanding I gained at school.
I found my Engineering background helped with the transition to OOP - I was less locked-in to "If A then B then C" procedural code because all my engineering work (although many years earlier) involved linked systems.
