Ken First of all you will have to check and see if you have the utilitied needed in the /usr/fox/wp/bin/tools directory. You will need the pdf_fdf utility as well as the fdf_g utility. What you want to do is first convert the display builder filed to a fdf format using the pdf_fdf util. Then to convert them to a NT format you have to put them in a transitional state by converting them to a g or text file by using the fdf_g. Once converted and transferred to a WP or AW70 you can then proceed to convert them back to a fdf by running the /usr/fox/wp/bin/tools/g_fdf on the files. When converting your displays, if you have any custom markers or symbols, the conversion utility will create some .m1 files which are a FoxView format of the markers that you have created. Be sure to copy all of you user markers and symbols from the /opt/customer/displib directory, otherwise you will have missing items on your displays.
