I just wanted to know how much I can trust in your comparation. :) I worked about 2 weeks with Delphi for a very small DLL (1-2hours/day). So, I can't tell much about it. But my impression is that all these comparations saying that VFP is SOOOoooo much better in EVERYTHING than Delphi are coming from peoples that know only VFP.

I found just one programmer who knows Delphi and VFP at almost same level and he told me that Delphi is better in all aspects except for speed with very big databases and reports.

As an old Borland Pascal programmer, I can say that if Delphi is at the same quality as BP 7.0, it must be better than VFP. But, once again, I never really worked with Delphi.
