>When she asks why I'd tell her that MS is not advertizing Visual FoxPro except among the converted, that magazines like CoDe are featuring .NET tools almost exclusively, if their last issue is any measure...

Interesting what you said. About a week ago I received my first CoDe issue. There are many folks that can be found here in the VFP forum of UT (Rod Paddock, JVP, Dan LeClair, David Stevenson etc) writing editorials or articles and what seemed to me it was a .NET magazine (just browsed it), as you well pointed out: no FoxPro. To be honest David Stevenson wrote: "Why would I want any Visual FoxPro code in my .NET application...", and I assumed myself to be already a "converted" one wondering what should I do with my expertise in VFP...

What will happen to FoxPro when some of the most outstanding folks in our community just talk dotNet?

Same remark as yours: "...if their last issue is any measure..."
