This seminar will demonstrate the most efficient and cost- effective techniques to convert your FoxPro 2.x code to Visual FoxPro®.
Founded by George F. Goley IV in 1983, Micro Endeavors has spent over 14 years providing cutting edge programming techniques and information to the FoxPro community. MEl is in the business of moving applications from 2.x to Visual FoxPro and will give you their proven techniques to convert your applications without wasting time in costly trial and error.
Who should attend and why?
You should attend this seminar if you have an investment in FoxPro2.x code and are:
Considering conversion to Visual FoxPro but need to know the benefits, process and cost.
Ready for conversion to Visual FoxPro but need a clear methodology to achieve it.
Dissatisfied with the results of your conversion to Visual FoxPro and want to improve the process.
We are very excited about the FoxPm Conversion Seminar. Teaming up with Micro Endeavors on this project is a real benefit for us. As a leader in FoxPro training and development for many years, Micro Endeavors is well qualified to define this migration path. The inside track on cost-effective conversion is an outstanding value.”

The benefits of migrating FoxPro 2.x code to Visual FoxPro.
The “real world” pros and cons of migrating your code to other platforms.

What is the best way to move my Fox DOS/Windows applications to Visual FoxPro?
Do I have to learn Object Oriented Programming to significantly improve my applications?
What tools, techniques or libraries am I currently using that won’t work under Visual FoxPro and what can I do instead?
When and where should I rewrite my code rather than port it?
When
shouId I and when shouldn’t I move my data to Visual FoxPro’s database container?
How do I get from File Server to Client Server?
Does SCATTER/GATHER still make sense?
How long does a conversion take for the average developer?
How can I take full advantage of Visual FoxPro’s data transactions, referential
integrity

How do I get the most mileage out of the Visual FoxPro converter program?
Which controls map well to Visual FoxPro, which do not, and where does the code go?
What is the “Year 2000” problem? Do I have it and how do I solve it?
How do I migrate my developers as well as my code?
