Agreed 110%. I wasted almost a year trying to convert a FPD2.6 app to VFP. At last I realized I was only wasting my time, and started from scratch with "real" VFP, using OOP and forms. After three months of real fun and learning a lot of valuable stuff, I fisished a much more modern and advanced application with a lot of features which I could only dream of with FPD. After that experience I deleted FPD from my PC, and never regretted it.

>I never succeded at converting a FoxPro DOS application in VFP. Way too much tweaking needed to make it even compile. IMHO, you're wasting your time. You're far better off rewritting the application from scratch.
