A client is trying to get a FPDOS2.5 app to run under VFP as a cheap Y2K fix. Their reports use PDSETUP.

To try to make this work, I've done the following:

1. Re-compiled GENPD.APP under VFP
2. APPENDed the contents of a FP2.5 FOXUSER table to a VFP FOXUSER table (after backing up, of course !) so the PDSETUP records are in the VFP resource file.

Since doing this, the program sails through various SET PDSETUP commands with no problems. However, when REPORT FORM is run, VFP blows out with a C00...05 exception error.

I seem to be so close, yet so far ! Am I missing anything?
