Hi!

Thanks you for help me:

Is it possible Foxpro 2.6 for DOS convert to Visual Foxpro 6 or 7 without change display screen code? Let Visual Foxpro can run DOS Foxpro 2.6 source code?

my email: protran@yahoo.com

Andy,
In general it can be (almost) done, but it's a nightmare for further maintenance AND you loose many of the the advantages of VFP. (You may also find it runs slower in certain areas due to having to "emulate" the old environment and relatively obsolete constructs.)

As I mentioned in the FP 1-2.6 Forum, see Thread182-53462 for more details.
