If you just want to get up and running, just run the old screens.
Quickest way for sure. But If you want to use most/all of the previous layout
in OOP forms without repainting them, consider converting them for easier maintainance.
This makes sense ONLY if your current scx-snippets are mostly empty or just reference
other programs. If you have "heavy" code in the snippets, it might not be worth it.
Since I took over the last year of maintainance of the FPW code, I had "restructured"
it previously, creating an empty GUI tier even in FPW. In such a case I might search
for the enhanced converter on my tapes.
