Title:
Conversion from FPW to VFP9
I have a large legacy application written in FPW 2.6 we are trying to migrate it to the VFP9 environment.
We have do decided to do use a hybrid conversion strategy. Run the old code (from the SPRs generated by FPW) and add new functionality using the VFP.
The problem is that the FPW foundation READ required by the FPW code is not allowing the VFP screens to fire their events – essentially the Read Events is being ignored.
The program is structured something like this:
a) Main program calls the menu (main.mpr) followed by a READ VALID()
b) From the menu – call the SPRs as required – they run – no problem
c) From the menu - DO FORM VFP_FORM - problem.
Whenever I click on the screen, the program immediately jumps to the foundation Read’s valid function
I have tried to :
a) issue a READ EVENTS immediately after the DO FORM command and it is ignored.
b) Issue a READ EVENTS before the foundation Read – the VFP code works but the SPR code that requires the foundation read fails.
c)There is no difference between modal screens and non-modal screens.
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
