There was a pre existing VFP app that was modified. A .NET solution would need to be created from the ground up. The requirement would be very different.

>>I got my last assignment by have a well developed app written in VFP that could modified to work for the new business for a small investment. While a new system would have cost at least $500,000. It also helped that I have a diverse skill set, knows fox, and did not try to convince them that they should throw out there existing AS/400/DB2 systems because MS says .NET is the future. With VFP I was able to leverage the large investment already made in my software and with minor changes I can make use of their existing technology investmests.
