Jijo,
You may want to point out that VB6 has been discontinued in favor of VB.NET which will require quite a learning curve from the previous version. Here's a link I like that talks about the strengths of VFP compared to other MS products(towards the bottom): http://www.activevfp.com/dev/qa.asp

>Dear All
>My company is in the process of changing the existing system, which is developed in FoxPro 2.5, Lots of people are approaching my top management and suggesting them to go for VB. I am trying to convince the management to develop the system in VFP and SQL as backend, this part of the world everybody has +ve attitude towards VB, I am finding little difficult to convince the management.
>
>Please send me the advantage of VFP over VB and some success story of VFP. And the future of VFP, They are projecting that VFP is going to dead in couple of years, Microsoft will be discontinuing the support for VFP. I need some strong advantage of VFP and SQL to fight against VB .

>Hope someone help me to promote VFP and SQL in my company and in my country as well.

>Thanks in advance
