Okay, I can’t find it now but someone said, "hey pop it into v17 and see if it 
works…" or something like that. Well, I did just that and without any changes 
it compiled (after toggling unicode on) and I created a built server and client 
and ran a few tests. Yes, as I recall, I did fix all of the syntax errors years 
ago. It seems to work for the most part (PICT icons and images do not show and 
a couple of fields cannot be used for data entry, I’m sure that’s an easy fix). 
I’m surprised this works at all! So, there are more than 700 lines of code with 
the deprecated “_o_” prefix. Perhaps I could make a lot of that go away via 
Search/Replace (a feature that I normally don’t use).

Thanks to all of you that have contributed. It looks like I can get this 
running as it did before via v17 so that it can run on their new hardware 
running the latest Windows server and Win10 clients…. Of course they want this 
yesterday, so I could deliver the converted one and then upgrade incrementally. 
Yes, it does look ugly as f*ck but sadly no one is complaining about that.

Thanks,

Robert
