Indirectly???? Where? I think you are making an impermissible inference (and an illogical one at that).

OK...you say this in light of not being able to show direct evidence of MS's standpoint.

That would imply

A. I was wrong before and;
B. I am wrong now...


No doubt, there are some benefits - in the abatract - as to how VFP works with data. That said, from a PERFORMANCE standpoint - VFP has no material advantage over .NET. Second, if there is an area where .NET may borrow concepts that are loosely adopted in VFP, it would likely be in the area of GUI efficiency. I think you will find when the next version of .NET comes out, while there may be hints as to how VFP does things, in the aggregate, it won't be the same. Distant cousins perhaps - but not siblings...

Your arguments are laughable and absurd...
