I've also talked to users who installed our VFP apps on Mac, with Wine, with similar success.

You have to remember that Linux is not windows. So, I would try to limit your programming to what Foxpro can do within itself. In otherwords Activex are not Foxpro per se. API calls are not either. There is a chance that activex will work, or API calls also, but I would avoid those.
