>>>I have been looking at switching to .net from vfp. I have toyed with mm.net at bit but have not purchased it. I am the only developer at a medium size company and build in house apps. While mm.net looks great for the backend, it has nothing for the ui. I want to use WPF to make mainly UI's that look like winforms type apps for business but will use some WPF features for enhancements that aren't possible in winforms. We are actually on a spending freeze now but I want to use this time to check frameworks out. Are there any frameworks that handle both the backend and UI? Should I use mm.net and get a UI framework? Keep in mind the cost too. mm.net is something like $600-700 and then a UI framework for $???? and then Expression Blend on top of that all for something like$300-400. All makes me wish vfp was going to live.

I don't think you'll currently find a framework that's a good fit with WPF - the whole approach to the UI (and to data binding) is so different
Also , IIRC, mm.net does have a fair amount of UI suport for winforms?
Best,
