I interviewed at a huge corporate IT environement recently. The needed an experienced VFP developer to service the installed applications until they could be rewritten VB and upsized into ORACLE. Basically, they wanted me to help exterminate my own job function. "No new development is VFP," I was told. They promised me that I would retrained in VB and ORACLE technologies and were offering a huge compensation package. I almost considered it, but I didn't like the environment. Beyond that, the commute would have been too far.

The point is, for many IT managers VFP is DEAD!!!!!!!!!!!!
