Hi John,

Now that MS has a patch for 2.5/2.6 for the faster CPUs, wouldn't it be better just left alone?... I mean, if the owner wants a 'straight port', what does s/he have in mind?

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.
