For the conversion you might take a look at Stru2PostgreSQL, which is
Kevin Cully's modification to my Stru2MySQL program. You can download
it from: ftp://leafe.com/stru2postgreSQL.PRG
The AppWizard is great for creating quick data query/entry forms; you
might also take a look at the "Building a Database Application using
the Dabo Class Designer" (parts 1&2) screencasts on
http://dabodev.com/documentation
.
Being created by a couple of old Fox guys, Dabo knows how to work
with data. However, we have not simply copied The Fox Way; instead, we
took the best ideas in Fox and implemented them in Python. So
sometimes things work the same, and other times they do not. If you
get stuck, this list is the best resource for help.
