However, since this legacy app is really more like a FoxBase+ app - all the screens were hand-coded using @SAY and @GET, It really shouldn't make all that much difference. Thanks for the idea - I'll give it a try.

Check Alejandro Sosa's converter - it gives you true conversion to textboxes etc, not the Read emulation like VFP's converter does. Maybe some earlier version of it is still around, which was general enough; the latest targets CodeMine framework, and I suspect it fills some specific PEMs of its classes. Maybe it can be redefined to target a different framework.
