I am currently in the process of converting an application from VFP3 to VFP6. The conversion has not gone entirely smoothly and I am now left with a couple of annoying 'features' which are different to the VFP3 version.

The first problem is that the captions of disabled pages on a pageframe seem to have a 'shadow' which makes them harder to read than on VFP3. Does anyone know how to make them look more like they did in VFP3.

The second problem is in two parts. After conversion the first Tab of the PageFrame gets the focus when the Form is created (different to VFP3). I tried to correct this by setting the TabStop property of the PageFrame to .F. but now when the Form is shown the cursor is nowhere to be seen and also pressing tab when in the last field no longer goes to the first field on the Page. Does anyone know how I can enable 'circular tabbing' but at the same time prevent the Page tab itself from getting the focus.

PS
Has anyone else had the problem I had with converting classes in a project whereby the converter says is can't find the class library? In the end I had to convert the classes manually with the converter, then convert the project and then add the classes back into the project manually.

PPS
On a couple of my converted classes when I try to amend them it says it can't find the file 'T:\PRIVATE\SEN\V2.1\SOURCE' which is hardly surprising as this is a directory name. Both classes are 'forms'. Does anyone know how I can stop this happening as it's really starting to irritate.
