>What in particular do you like about VB?

A couple of things come to mind:

1. VB is very well suited for 3-tier web apps and Microsoft's .Net strategy. It also integrates very well with other Microsoft technologies.

2. I feel it is a more versatile development environment that VFP.

3. The amount of support Microsoft gives VB shows that it will be around for years to come.

I know you can make these same arguments with VFP (with the exception of # 3). VFP is a good development environment for small to medium size desktop or LAN apps, but I don't think VFP will be a very big player in Microsoft's new direction.

Just one man's opinion.
