Ah, thanks for the link and the offer. With Phrasebook and O'Reilly let see how far I get. You have it right, I want Python to do what VFP can't. So my boss won't turn over projects to the Dot Net and Java teams-(neither of which, I'm not a part of.)

I wanted to create routines that did everything VFP did not. Just pick one and experiment: http://www.amazon.com/Python-Phrasebook-Brad-Dayley/dp/0672329107 I have been absolutely buried with projects but I still will upload the VFP and Python code for my interface. I will also upload the Python.exe so you won't have to rebuild it if you don't want to.
