I disagree with your basic premise. There has been no decline in the use of VFP, but in fact evidence to suggest an increase in use.

- more major Foxpro events per year
- an increase in the traffic of the UniversalThread
- increase in the size of the MS Foxteam
- increase in the number of major Foxpro sites
- VFP was chosen ahead of VI and J++ as one of the 3 core languages in the MCSD

Anyone else have other facts?
