I don't want to get off on a rant here ...

You and I go back a long way with Fox and have had a reasonable amount of success with it, and I know you agree that the idea that somehow there is something holy about Foxpro or that moving to anything else is just too time consuming or expensive and that Microsoft is somehow evil for following what they think is the right direction for their company and that we should pin our hopes on open source operations or outfits like eTechnologia to save us from learning something new is just laziness, ignorance of what .NET is really all about or capital D Denial.

I'm a lot more productive now than I ever was in Foxpro and I bet I was a little more productive in Foxpro than a lot of folks who won't give it up until it is pried from their cold dead fingers <bg> (and yes I know there are some really brilliant VFP developers who for whatever reason are continuing to ride it and a lot them are good friends and I wish them well. Bless their hearts <s> )

Of course that's just my opinion. I could be wrong.
