>But you're quite right that some people don't want to know anything about FOX. I've met some system administrator who is nuts about VB and ACCESS. Now my app is becoming outdated (FPW 2.6) he wants to rewrite it in VB or ACCESS, Because VFP is not such a beatifull language. Especially these kind of people are very hard to convince that VFP is the rigth choice.

I'm sure that a lot of us run into the mentality that wants to migrate from Fox to VB during a legacy upgrade; you're right: it's due primarily to ignorance. I can't count the number of VB programmers I've astounded with what Fox is actually capable of; especially in the area of classes and inheritance (VB inheritance is still cut and paste), and data manipulation. We need to stage a competition between VB and Fox programmers. In the end, the rumor would be that VB is on its last leg.
