Hi All.

Advice sought. I have run into a situation where a faily complicated FPW2.6 application needs to be converted to VFP6. The original developer cannot be contacted. There are no design documents or analysis materials. The project contains 40+ screens and 100+ program files (most of which are one procedure wonders). The process owner does not want to invest any time in re-engineering the functions of the application....wants a straight port.

In general, what approach would you all take? I'm looking at, maybe, a functional decomposition and then re-engineer the myriad little PRGs into functional custom classes. Maybe not, though.

Any words of wisdom?
