From one who made the mistake of shifting to Java (in 1997) at a time when there was no compelling business proposition to do so, apart from wide hype and excitement: if you have business in VFP, STAY PRODUCTIVE and learn as you go. Sort of like not selling your current computer till you've found the next one!

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
