>You meant 2011 isn't it?
I meant literally going back to old messages and looking at the alternatives offered at the time. Pick among the survivors - VB6 doesn't look like a contender, nor does Power Builder, ... but anything that was recommended seven years ago and is still around may eventually turn out to have a future ;).
>>Something in this paragraph, probably the "why now", has triggered a thought: why look for answers now? The "Fox is dead" threads are alive and well for at least a decade. So my advice is to pay for a PUTM (if not having one already), and then search for alternatives to VFP in threads similar to this in, say, 2001 or so.

>>Then pick among the still surviving recommendations. I see only three (dot net, java and LAMP), but there may be others. And of course there's the "let's try this again seven years from now" game. I've seen Fox apps running for 15 years or more, so maybe no change would also be a good way.
