>1.  Keep lots of aspirin and booze handy.
>2.  Don't even try to re-use screens.  Recode them.  Look at the SPR files and see what the screens do then move any snippet code into custom methods of the new forms.
>3.  Change all PUBLIC variables to Application or other Custom object properties.  Change all PROCEDURES to Application/Custom object methods.
>4.  Anytime you see SELECT-SQL statements, consider replacing it with a local view and refresh the view (after putting all tables into a database, of course).


5. Screen sets and browses don't convert very nicely.
6. Don't chase the aspirin with the booze.
