>>>I found a thread via the search that might help with this, but unfortunately, at least until my PUTM is active, I can no longer get to searched messages. I would like to know if anyone has written a utility to go from the FRX to a PRG and also, probably more importantly to me, from PRG to FRX? I did see one in the downloads for the first scenerio, but it wasn't very clean. I have not seen one for the second. I have a bunch of old reports to convert that were written using @Say and I was hoping to at least find something that would take the fields/variables and place them at the right place on the report form. Thanks!

>I knew, I saw it somewhere :)) Theoreticaly speaking, it could be done, but would require some real devotion and several hours (or days) of work... I would not try it...The first thing, which would be needed for this project, is John Koziol's article...

There is an article 'Report Objects: Finally!' by Doug Hennig in June 1999 issue of FoxTalk that describes and provides a set of classes that allows to build reports dynamicaly w/o even knowing FRX structure.
