Karl,
>VB users have been "doing OOP" since 95. They'll not be facing the all-or-nuthin challenge FoxFolk had to deal with.
Actually a lot of the challenge with FP->VFP was how much old-style to keep, mixed in with the new, not all-or-nuthin. Might be kinda similar.
>All MS is doing is tossing in another form of inheritance to placate the whiners
Sounds pretty simple. So there's not a new mindset needed, and MSoft didn't do any drastic rewrite of the VB codebase? Sure?
