Not as such.
The only difference I encountered untill now is a BUG in VFP with multicolumn reports whereas the first cell of the leftmost column isn't populated.

For the rest there are no changes to be made.
Only pay attention to reports of FPW2.6 that have the environment saved with it (open tables, indexes and relations). Either make sure the DE of the report in VFP6.0 is set up the same way or clear them and do it all manually.

Good luck,
Yves.
