Steve,

Knowing SBT, and I have worked on their systems for over 2 years, I bet that the new version if VisionPoint is more of a recompile. SBT wrote several conversion utilities when they converted their Pro series so that the screens in 2.6 were made into object in VFP3 or VFP5 but all of the code behind the screens was still the 2.6 code.

I would recommend you looking at Account Mate. That package started in Visual Foxpro instead of migrating up from the 2.6 world.



>We are in the market for a new G/L and A/P accounting package. We want to stay with a Foxpro based product. Presently we are considering the SBT VisionPoint 10 and also waiting for some info on the IAS Advantage system. I have become relatively proficient in recent months with VFP and can use the report writer quite well.

Our company is a water and wastewater utility and we already have a billing package which is written in FPD 2.6, and there will be a need for a minor amount of interfacing with that system. I have seen some of the comments on the thread concerning the coding of SBT, (not much good has been said), and wondered if maybe the new release of VisionPoint 10 is a re-write to a more OOPifed environment. Or it may just be the old stuff recompiled under VFP 6.
