Actually, I guess I wasn't clear enough about how these screens were set-up. They are only built using @ SAY/GET inside of a PRG file. There is no screen file for them - the original developers wrote the code manually. While this code ran OK under VFP 8, the screen format looked terrible. I was just looking for suggestions on environment settings, font settings, (or some other settings) that might make the display a little more reasonable looking (some forms had overlapping controls, etc.). I decided to just comment out these sections and replace them with a call to new VFP forms. (eg. DO FORM MyNewForm NAME loForm LINKED NOSHOW). Then I can set a few form properties, and call Show().
In the places where a real screen form was used, I've also found it was much simpler to just redo them instead of using a conversion tool. I decided I wanted to clean up some of the code, repoint various function calls to a class, etc. I don't have a consistent set of changes to make to each and every screen, so it doesn't lend itself to a nice automated tool.
