- I'm trying to determine if an existing application written in C could be
- easily re-written as a FoxPro application.
-
- The part of the application that is in question is an editor and
- form-letter generator. Essentially, the application contains a list of
- form letters. If the user selects one of these letters, he is brought
- into an editor, and he is able to edit the text of the letter as well as
- insert and delete fields of the database within the letter.
-
- Can the above be handled elegantly within a FoxPro application? Would
- it require interfacing to a C program for the editor/mail-merge
- functions?
-
- Thanks,
