Hi Mark

I can't speak about the upsizing wizard, however, I can about the help file.

The FoxPro help file is named: FoxHelp.chm. However, depending on what's installed, it could also be named: MSDNVS98.col. This depends on whether or not Visual Studio was installed.

The help files are located on a separate CD, marked, I believe, MSDN Libary. This has to be installed separately.
