Hi jos,

>PMFJI, but do you honestly think this will happen for VFP after everything thats been said and written? I dont think its a technical consideration at all. I think the main argument against making VFP part of .Net is that there no cost justification to spend the money to do this for the relatively small universe of VFP developers vs. the number of developers of other development languages like VB and C.

No, I don´t think it will happen. But given the change of MS strategy in this respect, there is more room of doing this from a technical POV. It now might be easier to translate VFP into .NET without losing many of its characteristics. But to be honest. I don´t think this will happen either.

Walter,
