Hi Gunther
That is a question to you to respond... but i can only say that have programed on both languages and for me FoxPro is better than VB.
I can give me example, in here we make software to Manufactor (planning, Touch Screen, diary, ..... and so on, every think to control a manufactor), and we program in VFP.
Note:
In the question of look's, i think that VB have a better look that VFP, in the question of flexibility and faster .... VFP win's.
