Hi,

In case it may help someone, I found the reason for the abnormal termination reported above: Several of the properties created by the conversion program in the "properties" field of the scx had a missing second quotation. For example, I created a line which said:

Name = "txtcCity

It should have read:

Name = "txtcCity"

VFP reported an "internal consistency error" and aborted.

I would welcome advice from people who have written programs to convert the FP 2.6 metafiles to VFP metafiles.

Thank you.

Alex
