I went through the same thing were I work at. All the programmers here work with visual basic 6. .NET and visual C++ to do a lot of hard core coding simply because they have been doing it for years. I am the lab manger here now and i purchased Labview 7 express. Now when it comes to building test for production and other projects they come to me because i can do them faster in labview than they can in any form of coding. do this find something simple that you can do in labview (ie connect to GPIB) have your coworker do the same and see who gets done faster with same results.
HAHAHAHA you'll be drinking coffee for at least 30 min. before he does. god bless have fun (Isn't this exciting)
