Hi Vernon,
Just reload FPD and open the report in it. The transporter should do just fine with the windows definitions. I had to do this just the other day, and it isn't all that hard and didn't take terribly long. However, I think you might want to keep the DOS definitions in a separate file. As I recall, there are some minor issues with keeping them in the same file when you try to print the report to a file.
