A consultant friend I know has been struggling with Access 2.0 as the front end for developing some client-server applications. Now he is considering changing platforms to PowerBuilder, but first he wants to know what I think of PB vs VFP, but I've never used PB.

Please reply if you are familiar with PowerBuilder 5.0 and can give any comments on its strengths and weaknesses compared to VFP 5.0.
