I think we all had a bit of a transition to the Windows UI. I didn't succeed at it until VFP 6.0. I started with FoxBase, then moved to FoxproLan then for several years, I used a DOS language called MagicPC (btrieve based) before switching back to VFP 6.0. it was a challenge, but one well worth the effort. Today, I'm still trying to wring the most out of VFP9 and I often feel like I'm still only scratching the surface.

VFP 3.0?
The hardest part for me as I remember it was getting my head around how to bind UI controls, handle buffering and transactions, and that whole paradigm. I had never been a VB programmer or anything - I was a C guy back then with some FoxPro for DOS experience. So Windows UI was new to me.
