I must admit that while the learning curve is much steeper than it was with VFP (so much more is built-in), it is a lot of fun! :o)

>>>PS -- I am up to my itching eyeballs in C# and will become even more so next Monday when I start a 3 month C#/.NET training program. Lord help me but I am starting to like semicolons and curly braces ;-)

>I am paying for it. It's not cheap, either. If it pays off the way I think it will, based on due diligence -- i.e. Who ever knows really? <g> -- the money will be well spent. A year or two from now I expect to be making near or above 6 figures as a C# / .NET developer. For a sometimes excitable guy, I am approaching this with clear eyes. No guarantees. Just hard work and faith that it will pay off.
