>There is a big effort at Microsoft to add new features to Visual Studio programming that include the same great data-cenric features of VFP.

This will be great, i view C# as VFP on steroid! It has almost everything i would love to be added to VFP but lacks the ease of working with data VFP has always had. I beleive the only thing that will hold me from switching to .Net is the re-write of all our VFP code... Is there any plan at MS to write a VFP->.Net conversion ?
