Another con that I seem to remember when I looked at VB was that it cost an
absolute fortune (for any version
that was actually useful!) Maybe that has changed?

Good for you Nick! This  is a point that some of the people who have decided
to bail have missed. This list
isn't just here for the bright members to worry arguments to a point
somewhere approaching infinity. It is also
here so that all of us can get help (and give help) to others with their
programming problems. If Nick sees
something he can reply to, he will be there. It doesn't matter that he is
heading in the direction of VB.
