Re: Conversion of Clipper --> VB.NET

Hi,

its a complete rewrite and you will miss some functions from clipper.

Here are some tips
Check your data structures, remove things not used anymore.
Setup ADO and create some cl***** to read/write/search your data (like 
customer with .getrecord, .saverecord(), depends on your needs)

Start creating forms (form cl*****) to search and edit your data
Remember that as far as I know VB misses the "datecheck on entry" you are 
used from clipper, you have to create / buy cl*****.

Start building your re****ts

There is/was a foxpro project ("vbtoolkit") that offers some foxfunctions 
(which are similar to clipper) on vb.net, like arrays, strings, and so on

HTH
Tom
