This is a FoxPro for DOS 2.x application that I would like converted to FoxPro for Windows. It is a small Library/Book Tracking program that keeps track of an individual's books and authors - very simple. I would like to have a modern Windows look and feel for all of it, including the few reports it generates.
I would like it done in Visual FoxPro. Let me know what version you use. It should include an executable that does not require FoxPro to be resident on the customer's computer.
I have attached the FoxPro for DOS application PRG files and DBFs in a zip file.
The DBFs and CDXs go in the directory \LIBRARY\DBF
Everything else goes in the directory \LIBRARY\PRG
In the rewrite, the data could go somewhere under MyDocuments, and it would be nice if the program was under Program Files.
If this project goes well, it will likely lead to more work on 2 other FoxPro for DOS applications that I have.
