Hi Vineet,

If you already wrote the app in Foxpro then it should be much easier
to port. Take each Foxpro screen and make something similar in
Web2py?

I appreciate that might sound too facile, but when you tell me what's
wrong with that idea,  I might be able to see better where your
difficulty lies.

Regards, D
