Conversion of foxpro 2.6 (dos) to 2.6 windows or vfp

$250-750 USD

Paid on delivery
We have a application on foxpro 2.6 that need to convert to Windows FoxPro or Visual Foxpro 9, so we are looking for a coder experienced in this kind of conversion, you may have to provide complete flowchart, logic involved and programs written that will translate the functionality using VISUAL FOX as needed. All the data entry screen templates are written in Saywhat, a DOS screen creator for FoxPro DOS that is wonderful. Suspect all we need is to update the code to create those templates in FoxPro. Your resources will be program code, and the software itself. Plus you can ask us questions as needed. There is no software specification document. You need proficiency in both Foxpro and Visual Foxpro ,A couple of other important things about this project: There are numerous (50-ish) data entry screen/forms and many reports. This whole thing is a module running flawlessly for over 20 years (of course with many updates) and only needs to be converted into FoxPro for Windows or VFP. I learned and do the FoxPro programming for over 20yrs, and I think our only issue is replacing and adding the data entry screens to the code (or BEST a 3rd party screen maker program (like we have had with SayWhat for DOS). You will be able to see all those screens in the running programs and see them in Saywhat if desired. TURNAROUND TIME : 10 days

I would be a strong candidate to consider for this project. I have coded in Foxpro since is was actually FoxBase+ back in 1987 before Microsoft bought it out. I still currently develop with Visual Foxpro 9 today. I think your overall estimate for the project might be low, but I'll work with that. Althought never used SayWhat, I used another program Genifer (code generator). I have been self-employed for over 10 years as a consultant specializing in VFP developed applications and am completely confident in upgrading your system. I have done a few other FPD and FPW applications from my consulting time. Doing a functional conversion itself should be relatively easy to accomplish vs a true upgrade to VFP depending on what the underlying code has. I would suspect it is mostly SEEK, FIND, REPLACE commands vs SQL oriented. Anyhow, the work I do is only payable in full at the end after full work completed, and I would deliver partials to show progress if that helps the comfort factor of the conversion. I do this sort of project for primary purpose of helping those in outdated technology and cautious about upgrading something stable from the past. I can answer and even offer a more accurate assessment if you would be willing to share source code. However, you did provide some of the best details in the job posting than many out here. I look forward to hearing from you on this position.

Hi, I'm interested in your Project. I'm developing with all FoxPro Version since 25+ years. I already ported FoxPro (DOS) to VFP9, and the application had less Screen as yours. It tooks much more time than 10 days. Is it possible to see some Code to evaluate better the costs? Thank you. Best regards, Boris

I'm a senior professional who works with Information Systems for longer than 30 years. In the specific case of Your system's conversion You can count with my long experience with Clipper and VFP, which I've used to develop an entire system for a large courier here in Brazil (with more than 100 branches across the country, all integrated over the internet and delivering over a million packages per month). Initially designed to work with DBF, shortly after roll out I've started to migrate to MySQL, fully successfull. Note: I've set the deliver time to 45 days as an estimation based on your information of "several programs", but it may vary (up or down) according to the real amount of programs.

I know your heart is set on FoxPro, but consider a browser-based cloud database application service that includes ALL IT services in a single plan. During twenty years of creating database applications for clients, I developed a method to support a diverse set of CUSTOM applications. We combine all services: DESIGN, DEVELOPMENT, HOSTING, TRAINING, and SUPPORT into a single plan--one low monthly fee to fully support your IT needs. Search for "Konduit Transaction Editor". I can set up most CUSTOM database applications on a production Transaction Editor (TEd) cloud server within two weeks for just $495. Users can Test Drive the application online for two months as we continue to refine your requirements. You get immediate hands-on experience as we calculate the affordable monthly recurring fee based on the complexity of your application. * Each TEd application combines spreadsheet ease-of-use with the accountability of a database and includes ongoing professional APPLICATION support. * Intuitive SEARCH, SORT, and VIEW-creation capabilities * All user data changes recoverable from CHANGE HISTORY LOG * Column and Row USER-ACCESS CONTROLS * Highly reliable and secure * IMPORT/EXPORT - named VIEWS and file format specifications * JOB scheduling and EVENT-based data modifications * NOTIFY capabilities * and so much more... Contact me for a demonstration.

I have over 15 years experience in software development, over 10 years in foxpro and visual foxpro. The system will be converted to VFP9. In my experience, I doubt something like this can be delivered in 10 days. 20 days is a stretch but I am willing to give it a go, so hopefully you can be flexible on this. Look forward to hearing from you.
