I don't understand. Either this is a joke, or perhaps someone is confusing 
filePro with FileMaker Pro.

Well processing is a "filePro-ism", but I dunno.

Everything else Mark said I agree with. I don't think ML got to the fact that 
while you could write a VB app from a  filepro processing table and 
screen/report framework given enough time/staff, going the other direction could 
vary from very difficult to impossible.

I wish the best of luck to whomever takes this on, and updates us as to what the 
job actually entailed.
