>I write software for retailers... and in our world, we know the most dangerous customer is not the one who complains - it's the one who quietly just goes elsewhere. I worry that that is the future of many current VFP developers.

If I understand correctly you write applications for a vertical market?

Why would making it with VFP make a difference. Unless there are things that can't be done and .Net is the solution.

I'm wondering because I'm working on a vertical market application and the use OF VFP has no importance (yet). What is important is that the application is working like it's supposed to work and the price is right.
