Haven't tried, really. It's the old and proven converter code which got delivered with each version of Fox since 2.0 or so, and it's only been tweaked to accomodate for various format changes, but it basically just runs. It would probably run from FPD2.0 if you tried. The age of the code can be judged by the amount of @ get commands and the occurrence of alias->field notation. At least it doesn't write "and" as ".and." :).

Since the format of the reports hasn't changed since 2.5, I figure this should just run. What you'd get is a report with widths recalculated to cram 132 columns to 8" of paper, and which would require Arial Narrow to be present. Your old DOS report would be saved as a f2x/f2t pair AFAIR (just backup first...).

So, steps:
- find your transprt.prg
- in it, find the procedure
- apply my changes, and see whether you need to rebuild convert.app or is transprt.prg actually out of the project
- modify report YourOldDosReport
- accept conversion
- see what happens.
