Help a Brotha Out

[oo7jeep]

I am really sorry to ask, and I hate it when people who dont have anything to add post on a forum asking you for help. But I promise you:
A. Im not asking you to do my job for me
B. I already looked through other threads to find if the info was there.

If you could just write a few lines I would really appreciate it.

I work in business systems at a smaller company, and we are trying to choose between 4th Dimension and Visual Basic.Net

I cant find any comparison between the two anywhere. Ive googled a million different things looking for a comparison.

I was curious if you knew anything about the difference between the two. Which has more talent available for it, which is easier to integrate with things like oracle databases, excel and SAS.

Thank you so much.

Flame if you want, but if you have any Qs about acoustic guitars ill help you a lot.

Thanks,
Eddie

hey im just curious what do you mean by 4th dimension?

[oo7jeep]

4th Dimension is another software platform offered by a company called 4d. www.4d.com

It basically (as far as i understand it) is used for relational database funtionality.

Since 4D seems to be almost unheard of, the choice should be VB.NET.

The support for VB.NET is better, and you'll find more people using it. I don't know the answer to your other questions, since I haven't used it, and there will be very few people here who have used 4D.

Thanks guys, I appreciate it.
