Cross train to another language...

[LucieLastic]

I hope it's ok to post this in here. I'd like to get some experience in another language other than Delphi, what would be a good language to learn to make myself mor marketable?

I'm also confident with Sql Server 2005 but would Oracle experience be better?

I would suggest C#.

Anything with a 'C' in it or VB or anything ending with ML.
But (though maybe not from the financial pov) you will regret it Lucie!

Oh and as Java has a 'C' in it?
That might be worth consisdering

Hey Lou,

Long time!

I would also go for C# (and SQL Server).

Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) using XML Web Services seems to be in vogue at the moment, so maybe look into using C# in that context.

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I may be moving to the US, so would like to look at broadening my experience.

hiya Clive, hope you're well, I've been bobbing in now and then.
