dBASE was first exposed to me almost 30 years ago (in early 1980s). I have been developing PC applications for over 20 years using dBASE, FoxPro and VFP5. I regret that Microsoft has not developed anything for me (or any other VFP developer) to convert or at least help convert a VFP application into another language. As Microsoft Office continues to evolve, my VFP5-based applications are no longer compatible with Office 2007 and beyond. I can no longer invoke an Excel worksheet and send data to it. Can anyone tell me whether this problem can be solved if I upgrade my VFP5 to VFP9?
