I totally concur here.....it is a HUGE can of worms........I tried it and
gave up in disgust....
notably Omega never posted a code conversion/upgrade "checklist" or "gotcha
list" !!

For complex multi-function coding that employes arrays, etc.
TS2000i is so far superior to TS4, it's analogous to Win2000 vs. Windows
3.1.
