This assumes that it can be converted, however. Certain structure members are difficult, if not impossible, to be properly converted in VFP.

Well I solved this one with the help of the seagate KB.

I'm really struggeling with these api calls. An anternative is to use the Crystal Reports activeX control, but this seems impossible to have much control over the printer properties (like in VFP). With these api calls I see the possibility of making a custom print dialog box including setting the orientation, papersize, color, quality and so on, and with the possibility of previewing and exporting to Word, Excel, E-mail and other formats.

This use of crystal reports is certainly worth the effort of finding out how it could be accomplished.
