>>Thanks for your comments John. I will be experimenting with VB6 for creating databases this fall and will be doing a comparison between that and VFP6. The main crieria for assessment will be as above (developer productivity, application performance and application maintance cost). Are there any other criteria I should be using?


>Please excuse me for being rude by chiming in here. If you are truly looking out for your employer, you must consider how difficult it is to find a knowledgeable VFP programmer should you leave.

Excellent point Jack.

Anyone else have any other points, experience or advice?
