>I am going to have to upgrade a project I look after from 7 to 9 - are there any things to look out for out of the starting gate, or ought it just be a recompile, and all is good? Many thanks for your input!

Biggest one if you're using FoxPro tables and FoxPro SQL syntax is SET ENGINEBEHAVIOR 70. The Sql engine behavior in later versions is more strict and closer to ANSI standard which can make a number of things that used to work in previous versions not work.
