>>Are the current versions of Visual FoxPro (say, version 6-8) still compatible with reports created with FoxPro/DOS? Specifically, is it possible to run the old reports without converting them?
Thanks. I had tried this trick successfully in FoxPro/Win, but wasn't sure whether it still works with VFP.
BTW, I thought I had printed the reports directly to the printer. Wouldn't that work, with a FoxPro/DOS report used in VFP?
