FP26 to VFP Converter Problems

Let me start by saying; I already know that it is better to rewrite an application in an object oriented style than to convert. I have an application with many hundreds of screens and reports and I would like to get it on to the same platform as my rewritten code so that it at least has some of the look and feel of VFP. Now that issue is out of the way, I will describe my problem.

The converter which comes with VFP is buggy and makes some decisions I don't like. It sets the 'ColorSource' to values which give error messages. I assumes that I do not want 3D effects and creates ugly plain effect screens. It makes no attempt to place the associated screen procedures in methods.

Has anybody else tackled this monster? I am hoping I won't have to spend a couple of days rewriting code that other people have already wrestled with.
