>I was never making the argument that VB developers who did not embrace OO techniques would have an easy time.
No, you were suggesting that VFP developers should adopt and learn .Net is quickly as possible to save themselves. My point is that VFP is not a special case here. Your doctrine would apply as much, if not more so to the VB developers who "have precious little experience with frameworks and use a language that was object based, not object oriented.", to quote my previous post.
>Maybe in your neck of the woods there is...
I can only comment on my own experience in this regard despite the fact that I am currently consulting on a VFP job in the Philippines. Hardly my neck of the woods, so, go figure <s>.
