Hi George:

Here are some resources on converting FoxPro 2.x code in to visual FoxPro.
Is this what you need?

Chuck Urwiler's FoxPro Advisor article at:
<http://foxproadvisor.com/doc/05239>

Also, this is a link to an older white paper on converting from FoxPro 2.x
to VFP 5.0. While the information is a little old, much of it is still
applicable to later versions:

I hope this helps.

Hi George,
If you mean from FoxPro or Clipper for Dos to Vfp6.0, then the sensible
thing to do this, is to write down from the begining your new core and user
environment (in order to have all the power of VFP) and then copy & paste
to the methods (with minnor corrections) the business logic. The convertion
for the tables is very easy and automatic!...

This is what I done when I convert my applications from Clipper to Vfp6.0.

Have a nice day (or night),
