Thanks for this input:-)

Sure, strongly data-driven VFP applications may be diffficult to handle in compiler-based languages.

I understand though that Xsharp offers some sort of xbase-language-based scripting functionality. But I have no idea what that covers or whether this would cater for our needs/way-of-coding in this area. The Xsharp dev team have a xbase-centric expertise. I expect there may have solutions! Wait and see.
