From the article: "All three noted that many of their FoxPro compatriots have begun to move on to .NET programming. Microsoft’s strategy “has changed dramatically. It makes [VFP] a tough sell,” Duffy offered. Consequently, he added, the number of developers skilled enough to support and maintain a FoxPro application is dwindling." Hmmm...at least some part of that is true. I wonder if there really are hard metrics saying how many VFP devs went to DotNet or went other directions? Sure...it'd be good for the M$ image to say folks have come to the DotNet party...and it surely might be true....but is it REALLY? I guess those surveys we filled out that asked "are you going to use DotNet within the next a) 0-3 months, b) 3-6 months, or c) 6+ months ?" Get it? <gd&r> _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: ProFox@leafe.com Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[EMAIL PROTECTED] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
