The filespec subdir contains reports on the structture of FP2.x and the version of VFP you use (5 or 3) you may want to have a look there.. Arnon >>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 > >Rox, > >This may only be a starting point, but here's what I'd try. Open a 2.6 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). > >Let me know how this turns out. > >hth,
