There was a Conectivity Kit for FP 2.6 (I think I had it somewhere), but the amount of changes and the lack of support would make it FAR better to rewrite it in VFP6, in my opinion.

If the front end is not VERY complex or there aren't MANY forms, it shouldn't be a hard job, but as usual, it all depends on the case...

Doing it in VB6 would imply rewriting everything. VFP6 can reuse a lot of code (if it's not extremely coupled with the user interfase).
