>>Hey all,

>>Seems we have a wiz kid in our California offices that created a VFP3.0
report outside of my application environment. He made this report real
pretty and with lots of blank lines for the sales force to write notes on,
but I got called from corporate that the data was wrong and that I need take
it over asap. So I need to slap this report into my 2.6 reporting app and
I'm wondering if there's anything that will let me convert the 3.0 report
form into a 2.6 report form easily? TIA

report as a table, issue a call to the AFIELDS() function. From the array
that results, create a cursor or table (if you create a table, give it an
FRX extension, FoxPro will give an FRT extension to the memo file). Next, do
an APPEND FROM using the 3.0 report as the source. I don't know what
differences there are between 2.6 and 3.0, but in 5.0, there is one
additional field (the last one, USER).
