>I need to ask some specific questions about converting an entire project from FPW 2.6 to VFP 6.0. I've tried it the way the help files suggest but it doesn't work. I chose to try it functionally; however, the project will not build. If someone out there has any suggestions, please send them my way. Thanks.
We have converted quite a few apps. Every conversion so far has been different. Some are easy and some are not. That's because the original programs were written differently.
We have developed a number of techniques to speed up the conversion process including a global properties changing program for your forms. You can pick that up at
www.erw.com.
Let me know if you would like some help. If so, the first thing to do is to email a copy of the app so we can get a feel for the complexity.
If you are doing this just to beat the Y2K clock, why not make the old app compliant? We do a lot of that too. That is fairly simple.
