2.6 code will run under VFP 6 but you will probably have some problems. 6.0 does have a utility to convert 2.6 code. How well it will convert depends somewhat on the nature of the code. If it is pretty straightforward and uses the screen builder it will be much easier to convert. You'll probably have quite a bit of work on your hands to get it working well regardless.

I think there's a white paper on 2.x to VFP conversion on the MS web site: www.microsoft.com/vfoxpro.

>I have just inherited a FoxPro DOS 2.6 accounting application. The previous developer is moving on and will not give me the Foxpro 2.6 to maintain the application. I will be purchasing FoxPro 6.0 and would like to know if the 2.6 application will run under 6.0. My plans are to upgrade the application to Windows 95 and FoxPro 6.0. Is there a upgrade utility in 6.0 to upgrade 2.6 code? Will the 2.6 code run in 6.0? I am looking for some direction -- any tips would be helpful.
