>I'm currently of the opinion that .NET will cause the same kind of shakeout in the VB world that going visual did for VFP. A lot of folks never really did move their skill sets forward. I think that at that point in time VFP's star will rise more than most folks have anticipated. Maybe we should call it Visual Phoenix. <g>


Still stuck on the "Visual Phoenix" thing, eh Doug? < vbg >

No question there is going to be a shakeout. However, in time I think the real shake will be out of MS technologies.
