>Not a strategic tool despite so many developers unsing VFP?

Many developers but significantly declining. 5 years ago it's estimated at 500,000 registered users but I don't know today. IMO, the number of users in VB is much much more than VFP.

>Could it be that VFP is way ahead of VB that they are trying to get VB up to speed? Just a thought? Why esle whould they not commit resources to VFP the same way they do for VB?

We can claim that VFP is the best but others will argue. VFP and VB have qualities in common although VFP is better in Datacentric apps but VB is also better in some areas, ActiveX controls, SQL Server tools, ADO's etc.

CHARISMA simply means: "Be more concerned about making others feel good about themselves than you are in making them feel good about you."
