Don,

It really depends on how the QB program was written. If it's just a straight BASIC compilation (line oriented), then it'll require going through the code line by line. However, if it's not, then you'd first need to convert the Subs and Functions to individual programs to start. Any defined constants could be replaced with the #DEFINE directive. If any structures are implemented, I'd suggest converting them to cursors.

Prior to Fox, I did a lot of work in QB4.
