>>>I agree with you, but want to add one lighter thing: VFP is actively used by some biggest NYC corps, such as Chase and Citibank.

>>I'm happy to heard that. I wish it could be the same here. One bank I did business with are turning down VFP for VB and it is one of the biggest 3 in Canada. But, from what the developers said, it might turn back again to VFP because they can't do the same in VB and they already lost big money. When it happened, the developers were frustrated. The decision came from the top where one person read a magazine and saw VB in it. This is the kind of power which is afraid in big corporations and can make millions go away.

>My company (of course, it's not the biggest corp) lost 200K on some VB project last year (of course, nobody admits it).

200K it a lot of money. Can you tell us more about it?
