In situation like you described I do not convert report to VFP version. In fact VFP accepts old reports and you can use regular syntax to call them (but not to modify).

>We are in the process of converting an application from Fox 2.6 DOS to VFP 7.0; and have encountered a problem with report printing to a Lexmark 2390 Plus dot matrix printer. A specific report takes 30 seconds to print one page under the DOS system, and takes 2 minutes and 20 seconds under the VFP version. We did create the .frx using the migration/conversion tool, but have removed all "bolding", and have used Courier New as the font. We use 10 point for the page headings, 7 point for the column headings, and 6 point for the detail lines. We need the smaller print because we are printing on 8 1/2 X 11 continuous form paper, and need to cram a lot on a single line.
