I wish I could use VFP but the client has BSD and Foxpro for Unix (SCO)2.6 running. I don't know how to setup a website that will run 2.6 code. Anyway thanks for thinking about it.

I have solved my Java problem. It turns out that I wasn't paying close enough attention to the class wizard in JBuilder. Everytime I created a class I was creating it with the default base class (it was right in front of me) which was a JPanel and not a JFrame. Then when I called it it appeared that nothing happened. I was finally reading the source when I noticed I was subclassing (extenting) the JPanel and not the JFrame.

Over all it was a good thing (having the problem) it made me research how to create window apps with Java. There are two ways to structure an app in Java. In our VFP world we create a main screen (_VFP.screen) with a menu. From that menu we call forms. Each form is displayed within the main screen. In Java you can do the same thing using a JDeskTop as the main screen (JDeskTop =_VFP.screen) and then use JInternalFrame as the forms. The JInternalFrames will stay within the JDesktop. In Java they call this MDI. In the M$ world we have SDI and MDI all still within the main screen. Anyway, if you call Jframes they are indepenent windows. The only program I think of that acts like that is "GIMP". So I am not sure how to setup a program. Lots to think about.

Can't perl read Foxpro 2.6 tables?
