You said it was "one of many reasons". What are the other reasons, besides the declining usage? You keep saying VB.NET can do evrything C# can do. What can't VFP do that those two can?

>One rational interpretion of this is that you advocate VFP developers move to C#. I know you are not saying that. Still, you didn't qualify it. You listed VFP, VB, and c#, and of the three, you picked C#.

I advocate all .NET developers to make sure they're famailar with C#. Why? Because it will be much more beneficial to companies to standardize on a language, and if the choice is between C#, VB.NET, and VFP, C# is easier to standardize on because its a standard and very similar to other industry standards.

>I said it was not my primary argument, but it is one of many factors to consider.

And the others are?
