WILL THERE EVER BE AN END TO the "which is best" question? Which is best has more to do with the JOB requirements than with A language! Granted that we are all here because of our interests in Fox, but if 'you' are trying to use Fox to the exclusion of all else, 'you' have a major problem coming your way.

There are actually some jobs that are still best done with a pencil and yellow tablet (sacriledge), others best done with BAT, and even a few with (dare i say it) Visual Basic....

So, if you desire to know some of the differences between languag4es, ask away! But, if you want to know which is best, detail the job requirements with your question!!!!
