There is some learning curve for FF, and some work.. You will need to populate FF's database with all your info from your DBC (I believe there are tools for this) and then get comfortable with how they do stuff..

I used FF in the FP 2.x days and use a limited version of it with the framewwork I use (VFE), and now am looking at the full blown version.... If at all possible, buy the source code version, so you can make any needed changes..

Thanks!
