>I support an application in VFP 5.0 with the screens still in FoxPro 2.6. The tables are in VFP 5.0 as free tables. Programs, menus, and reports are in VFP 5.0. I am evaluating upgrading to the latest VFP release (8.0 I believe). I am looking at 3 options for the screens.
>1. Leave in FoxPro 2.6 and incorporate the .scx in the 8.0 project
>2. Convert the FoxPro 2.6 screens to VFP 8.0 using a VFP 8.0 utility.
>3. Re-writing the screens in VFP 8.0.

>I'd like to know if option 1 is a viable option. I'd also like to know if VFP 8.0 has a standard utility for converting FoxPro 2.6 screens to VFP 8.0.
