MS watched what happened to VFP developers as they tried to tackle OOP and MS does not want that to happen with VB. Also, VB would require a major rewrite to give it the same inheritance you have in VFP. It just ain't gonna happen...and VB 8 will exist...as will 9, 10, etc.

Walter,

No one can guarantee anything. But the odds are very, very high that VB will be around.
