Hi John,
A bare bones approach? I'd be looking to taking the .prgs, .sprs and the mprs and converting on a straight code basis.
Zero - or near to it, re-engineering.
Later if he (the client) wants screen mods then can sneak some real VFP in there based on original screens as required.

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.
