James,

Application development is so much more than the particular language of implementation. Just because .Net is being used doesn't mean that the development is actually good OOP either. The same was true with VFP, just because the capabilities are there doesn't mean that they got used the way they should have been.

>I'm trying to convince him that I just don't think moving to the .NET team would be that much of a leap for me and I'm trying let him know that VFP had OOP technology (whether or not it was used to its fullest was in the hands of the developer). I thought I could provide him with a little history lesson regarding VFP, information I'm sure he has never been exposed to in the past.
