Many clients don´t care in which language a solution is written. Your claim is irrelevant.

You really can't say that. It *may* be true for a custom app. But for contract programming, I don't think this is so. Also, it *may* have been true in 1990, but in 2004, I don't think it is as valid a statement as it once was. Clients are MUCH more sophisticated today than 14 years ago...

I won´t call 100.000+ developers a few. There are a lot of companies with modern and innovating development tools who would be very jealous.

Jealous of VFP??? I doubt that...

Get real. New technology. What if new technology is missing proven old technology? .NET can´t beat a number of very usefull VFP features, but of course technical details never stands in the way of spreading your FUD.

Your propostion pre-supposes the "features" you are talking about have perceived value. I understand they may have perceived value to you - but the argument has to do with how people outside the VFP community use the product. When you stop super-imposing your own value-system on others - then you may start to get a clue why the other 99.99% of the world HAS NOT jumped on the VFP-Bandwagon.

There should be no FUD Walter. It is not uncertain, it is not in doubt. And because there are viable options, there should be no fear.
