Should we ask Kamal to start working on a VFP Toolkit for Java developers as well? :))))))

>Several years ago, the honchos at MS decided to kill VB and move everyone to VFP. However, they realized they couldn't do it overnight -- there'd be too much uproar. So, here's how it's playing out:
>
>- MS releases Visual Studio.NET and kills VB, forcing millions of VB developers to migrate to VB.NET. As part of the migration, they learn what OOP is really about.

>- Under the guise of a great library of utility functions that make developers more productive, the recently released Visual FoxPro Toolkit for .NET gets VB.NET developers used to using VFP syntax, such as ASCAN() and GETFILE(), in their applications.

>- In a year or two, MS kills VB.NET, forcing millions of VB.NET developers to migrate to VFP. However, this isn't a painful migration, since they already know OOP and VFP syntax. The only hard part is getting used to using "This" instead of "Me", so the VFP team adds a feature to Beautify to do that automatically.
