>Who else?

I was offered a long term contract to maintain that system a couple of weeks ago.

I almost took it, but the more I thought about trying to keep a major, heavily overloaded, FPW26 app running and migrating to VFP (but not SQL - still DBFs) the more it scared me. I finally turned them down. The VFP migration is *supposed* to be a temporary patch while they come up with a new system. The VFP migration is, in their terms, a "minimalist" approach which says to me they are just going to run 2.6 code in VFP.

If they at least migrated to SQL data storage I'd have probably taken the contract because at least the data would be stable..

Been there. Done that. Not again...
