Meaning you're not going to re-design it. That's fine.
You are still going to have to re-write large sections of the code.
I'd start by trying to simply run it under VFP9
do MyOldPOS
and see where it comes apart.
I did one conversion as a fixed-price contract. I contracted to do it
for $9,000, which was a stretch for my client financially, and it cost
me almost exactly twice as many hours as I estimated. We're all happy
with the results, but converting from FPW to VFP is kind of like cancer
treatment - it takes a lot of effort and you don't get over it right away.
Good luck.
