Well - that argument has Once Again Reared its UGLY head today for me.
Here I was, talking to a buddy of mine - and he knows these people that
needed a database system built for some kind of shipping container
tracking. My buddy had asked me a number of times over the past 6 months
about building a database system for these guys he knows. But, I was
working fultime - and, at the time - considering my Bot work I was doing
on the Side - I didn't really have time to take on a whole new project.
But - now, obviously I HAVE a LOT of time I can dedicate to a knew
project. So - I told my buddy I would do that project now. Well, he
spoke to his associates last night - and that Whine that "VFP is Old
Tech" and that they don't want a system built with the stuff. Of course,
I try to tell my buddy that this is total BS - and he DOES side with me
- but, not sure if I we can convince his associates to let me go w/VFP.
He even wants me to see if I can meet up with the guy - and try and
convince him differently! My buddy suggested I show some kind of system
I developed w/VFP. And, I may be able to do exactly that.
However, is there any other "Ammo" that I can use in my arguments to
convince the guy that its STILL a Viable Tech???
What say U all?
TIA,
Kurt
An Old Out-of-Work VFP kinda guy...
