Hi Gorm,

I just refurbished a FoxPro 2.6 DOS application.

The main recompilation to VFP 7 went pretty smoothly. There are some gotchas though.

Here's a short list of the ones I remember:

1) If the old system used scatter to memvar with a field list and the field list did not match the current list of fields in the table there was no problem running under the 2.6 DOS compiler. There is a problem when compiled under VFP7.

2) @ say gets in 2.X seems to automatically left trim the captured memvar/field value. Not so in VFP7.

3 Set device to print does not work well under Windows. I printed all my reports to a text file and then wrapped them in an HTML wrapper with PRE tags to print them via IE browser. Major kludge! but it worked!!!

Good luck!

Hugh
Microsoft hears loudest what the VFP community says about Visual FoxPro by looking at the bottom line!

Support the product. Buy the latest version!
