First off, my apologies for speaking so blunt. You may not wrong but I strongly disagree with you.

I was not looking for an apology. Rather, I was looking for you to be reasonable and to understand that what you asserted had no basis of defensibility.

No. Not at all. It assumes nothing. It simply means that you can take the C# language to another level where VB.NET would not be able to.

But these are features "in the air". It is too generic and sweeping of a statement.

You need to first determine if you used VB correctly. Somehow, a lot of people have been able to build robust scaleable apps in VB. For sure, there are a lot more of them written in VB than in VFP. Also, assuming a limitation exists in VB, how can you ASSUME VB .NET would have the same problems?

FWIW, I don't think you know how to wield the VB tool in an optimal fashion. As I often say, it is the fiddler, not the fiddle...

Give a concrete practical example of when you would have to do this...

I'm not saying that people should abondan VB.NET - however, if someone should ask me "Which Software to use" I would strongly recommend C# and I would state what I've read and what I've experience. It's as simple as that.

Sounds like you are softening your stance - from one of technical superiority that could not hold water to one of preference...
