i have a need to generate the checksum value that is from sys(2007) from c# to coordinate a C# application with a vfp application - so it HAS to be sys(2007) compatible values.
i was able to find a fox pro version of code that simulates sys(2007)
http://fox.wikis.com/wc.dll?Wiki~CRC16 but converting it to c# is a little tricky. maybe there's some vfp to c# conversion website engine out there like there is for vb.net to c# or vice versa. I know vfp and c# don't necessarily transfer over but this is just using bit operations, data conversion, and some functions that seem to be making the process of conversion a little tricky.
