>I'm here to preach the opposite: Fox developers may not understand just how valuable and relevent they are. VFP developers, IMHO, seem to have a much better grasp of the "big picture" than any other single-tool Visual Studio developer group. We know UI, we know n-tier, we know COM, we know web, and we know data physical structure. Your typical VB app is child's play to an accomplished VFP developer. While they're screwing around figuring out how to access some data a separate DBA developed, we're already into version 1.1. This is what needs to be preached: Not VFP's inarguable position as poor bastard stepchild, but the fact that VFP's all encompasing environment has made us all lean and mean general developers.

Not to mention we can do it in half the time, at half the cost while performing twice as good. Particularly if we're using VFP and WC.
