While there are some "assisted" conversions from FP to VFP, including two variants that come with VFP, most everyone that has gone through this process, will tell you that it's better, in the long run, to do a rewrite.
The most useful information I got on migrating came from MicroEndeavours, Inc. They have a self study course VF610 "FoxPro 2.x to Visual FoxPro Migration Manual" choose "Self-Study" at the left, then down near the bottom of the page. One of their techniques can allow a gradual transition using a mixed model - especially useful if you need to continue making changes on the current application, but there are some downsides as you might expect.
