>>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.
