Hi there, I want you to know that you're not the only doubtful person on this vfp subject I am too!!! it's my personal opinion (maybe I'm mistaken) vfp is great but we can't ignore the idea that it's been "microsoft's bastard son" for many years, all the marketing, ads, publicity has always been to VB, there're a lotta folks out there and they haven't ever heard the word "foxpro" some people doesn't consider the fox as a programming language as a matter of fact see I'm not lying go to this link and see it for yourself
http://msdn.microsoft.com/usergroups/find.aspmicrosoft doesn't consider foxpro as a programming language but as a product, see? I'm a VB programmer too but I'm getting involved with C# and .net 'cause I feel, I think that foxpro is gonna be history as clipper, dbase, visual dbase, etc. Just take C# for a ride you can be as productive as you're with vb and still have the raw power of c++ (that's the slogan, right?)
regards
