Hi Anyone
I am in the process of compiling into VFP 8.0 an application written in VFP 6.0.
After compilation, I get into the following issues:
1. Editbox control
* the edit box control in basectr.vcx (bedt) and editctr.vcx
(eedt) will no longer work on VFP 8 because it cannot accept a value of 15000 for the maxlength property
* a form with 15000 maxlength value in bedt or eedt will crash

Is this a VFP 8.0 bug? Any workaround, please.

2. Create cursor ... from array
* VFP 8 expects 18 columns for the "create cursor [cursorname] from array [arrayname]" statement while VFP 6.0 array had only 16
* this coding in vfp 6.0 causes the message "syntax error" when executed in vfp 8.0

Any workaround?

3. Lookups will have problems.
our lookups calls on select sql statements (ie. select cacctid,... from glacct order by cacctid).
VFP 8.0 gives error message "Function sequence error."

Any workaround?

Thanks in Advance
Chichi
