Barbara,

>I've been asked to convert (NOT rewrite) an SCO Fox application presently running on an 1995 era UNIX box. I've been assured they have all the source code - that they recompiled it under SCO Fox when making Y2K changes.

It's pretty much just plain old FP DOS code -- in fact there are no UNIX-specific entries in SCX's, etc, even if built with the UNIX version. They all show as Platform=DOS.

>Does anyone have any advice about Gotchas? I've never worked with SCO Fox, just early DOS and Windows Fox in conversion projects.

You might have to clean up hard-coded paths and filenames, UNIX commands or scripts run with "!", and some SET PRINTER TO commands. FP/UNIX allows things like SET PRINTER TO "cat >> /tmp/filename", so you might find some strange stuff there.

Otherwise, plain vanilla DOS.
