Yeah, yeah I am. I'm sure there's businesses out there that are really buzzing about running their old XBase and Clipper programs on their NT/W2K machines but is it really necessary to buy a third party product to do this?

I mean, you take your damn Clipper or Dbase code and put it in Visual DBase or VFP or whatever, do the compile, fix what the compiler chokes on and you've got your Win32 app (much more maintainable too). Why deal with the old DOS codebase and editor? I guess I'm just not into maintaining legacy apps in their existing form.

I worked on an old system that was written in Clipper and FoxBase that was modified very little for VFP and it ran fine. Of course, it was no fun having to debug all the @GETs and @SAYs for the GUI!
