Hi Randy,

Visual FoxPro let's you create astonishing forms if your want to but most of the time, you will need to create the visual effects yourself.

Take a look at these forms: UltraFolder and
Ascalaphus

I would be glad to compose one or two themes for you: I like these things!

Cheers,

Pat

>I am trying to improve the look and feel of a legacy Foxpro app. It was originally written in FoxPro for dos and then converted to VFP for windows. It has been upgraded one version at a time to 8, but it still has a Windows 3.1 look and feel. Even creating new forms looks very plain. What are some ways that I can improve the look? Should I be looking for new controls? Is ActiveX the way to go? ANy ideas will be helpfull.
