Hi Gerard,
differences between VFP and .Net(it doesn't matter C# or VB) are:
- development time is 2-3 times more
- speed of application is 5-8 times less
We have possibility to develop the same project in VFP and in C# and to compare this issues
If some one try to claim that we have not qualified .Net specialist let's review UT magazine and profile of programmers, which are UT memebers(FTI my VB team leader is MCAD, MCSD early achiver with 3 years experience in .Net)
my 2 cents
