Mindy,

As others have mentioned in this thread, be sure to check out some of the third party controls available for .NET. The default controls that come with .NET are "OK", but you can get really cool user interface using some of the third party controls available.

Another thing to keep in mind is that, unlike the ActiveX controls and VFP combination, third party controls do work well with .NET.


>To All,
>Has anyone done either a rewrite or conversion from Fox Pro applications to WinForm applications using .NET? Currently, we as an organization, are looking into the possibility of converting some Fox Pro applications to WinForm applications using .NET. Before making any major programming changes, we are looking for demo downloads of WinForm apps. We are looking for reliable resources regarding Fox Pro and .NET, including pros and cons of converting from Fox Pro to .NET. We are also interested in finding classes or custom controls we can use. Please feel free to respond, either positively or negatively, so that we may get a feel for what we’re actually looking at. Thanks in advance.
