I'm not quite clear on what you ment by tons of compelling reasons to move off of VFP3.0. We use windows 95 as our OS but I have been told by previous programers that we are stuck with VFP 3.0 because are primary APP was developed in this version. It has been relayed to me that it would virtually take rewritting the whole application completely in order to make it so we could make changes as needed to it. As for the truth behind this I can only take their word for it since they developed the APP and I am now the only one remaining to due maint. on it. I'd love to get out of VFP 3 but is it possible without days of work?
