John: The main gotcha I know of in going from 7 to 9 is in the SQL logic, which is unlikely to appear in a form method. So you should be able to twiddle the form in VFP9, then run it in 7, so long as you don't use any of the VFP9-specific enhancements.
FWIW, the longer I work with 9, the quicker I am to convert to using it. The SQL logic is the only place I've ever had to do any real work, and 9 is faster and neater. Replace the run-times and your in business. Dan On 01/31/12 11:37, John J.
