You just did {g}. Seriously though, why do you think WPF is better than Winform? I admit that I know almost nothing about WinForms and even less about WPF. But I need to make a decision (recommendation) to a VFP customer on to what are we going to convert the VFP application. My understanding is that WinForms is the closest to VFP in terms of look and feel. WPF (from a little description I read) I believe is a graphical subsystem and I thought more suitable for graphical business applications rather than data entry type. Again, I am just guessing from the little I have heard/read about it. But I would love to hear your input on this since you have already working with WPF. And I thank you in advance for sharing.
