Fxp26Prg is a decompiler for restoring lost or damaged source code from FoxPro 2.5 and FoxPro 2.6 executables or compiled modules.Fxp26Prg reconstructs source code which is functionally the same as the original, including the names of variables and procedures.

I support a company that has a very old, mission critical, FoxPro for DOS 2.6 (FPD) application.
For variuos reasons the company didn't adapt/migrate their app, which, ironically, has been running even better under Windows XP (and 32-bit Win7) because the OS allowed new features like more reliable networking, distributed printing, email integration.Unfortunately for this company, most new machines now come with a 64-bit version of Windows 7, which is incompatible with their FPD app.
I know this time the writing is on the wall: the only long-term solution is to migrate their app. But I wonder if anyone can suggest a temporary alternative path, which doesn't involve either:
downgrade 64-bit Windows to 32-bit, or
run the app on a virtualized 32-bit XP

Virtualization is a little heavy for little tasks like this. The last company I worked for had a lot of legacy applications as well and they worked very well in DOSBox.
John TJohn TFreedos or msdos on virtualbox or some other VM might work if dosbox proves unsuitable

I have a legacy application, written with INFORMIX-SQL, running perfectly in pure Microsoft DOS 6.22 within Microsoft Virtual PC 2007 on Windows 7, Vista and XP machines!.. No need for DosBox, 4DOS or any other DOS-clone and no need for VMWare, Microsoft Virtual PC or other virtual machines. Plus DOS 6.22 and Virtual PC 2007 are free!
