Sometimes I even ashamed to admit I work with VFP. Do you know the reason of such attitude from outside of VFP world?

I didn't run across one employer or agency booth who was open to FoxPro. I came back wondering if I should bite the bullet and start learning a new language. Not because I want out of FoxPro, but because it's getting harder and harder for me to find FoxPro projects.

Cathy,

The question is: can we (all VFP lovers) do something about it or all of us should choose another language? The community here is great, but outside ot this small world we all face this attitude from time to time. Looks like we have to struggle to our right to use this programming language. Why is that? :(((
