We had the same issue. We recompiled the app to to run in VFP9. We created a auto-correction conversion app to migrate 2.6 SPR code to run in VFP9 with all its variances. I can help you over the hurdles if you decide to port to VFP9.
We wrote the auto-converter because we still maintain the 2.6 app as well. We do all maintenance in 2.6, and it auto-converts without issue.
