Visual FoxPro Transporter Dialog Box

Makes it possible for you to transport forms, labels, and reports across different FoxPro platforms and versions. This dialog box appears only when you are trying to convert Macintosh or MS-DOS files that have never contained Windows records.

According to the options set in the Visual FoxPro Transporter dialog box, Visual FoxPro creates Windows platform records from the Macintosh or MS-DOS records so that the Visual FoxPro Converter can convert the files to the current Visual FoxPro file format, which is necessary for using these files with later versions of Visual FoxPro.

For more information about converting files from other platforms, see How to: Convert Earlier Visual FoxPro Files.

• Transport
  Creates a Windows version of the Macintosh or MS-DOS records so that the Visual FoxPro Converter can recognize the file and convert it to the correct file format.

• Don't Transport
  Cancels the file transport and conversion process. You can still open the file in the older version of FoxPro.

• Font
  Opens the Font dialog box so you can choose the default font for your transported screen, report or label.

• Transport Objects From
  Makes it possible for you to choose the appropriate platform from the list.
