I'd say that the instructor needs only to ask himself one question to answer the question for himself... why has VB changed so much with the "7" version (.NET) if it is so far ahead of VFP from a OOP perspective?

VFP cannot 'expose' (if that's the correct terminology) EVENTS of its OWN MAKING whereas VB6 can. But for other OOP aspects, VFP is far ahead of VB6 and considerably behind VB.NET.

>I'm currently retraining in E-commerce taking Visual Basic 6. My Instructor keeps insisting that Visual Basic is miles ahead of Visual Foxpro and will remain that way. From what I've seen todate Visual Basic wants to hide everything properties/methods/events from developers and only expose what they want. Does Visual Foxpro have the same capabilites and taking a step back first, why is it such a big deal to hide things in the first place ?
