If it is the error we USUALLY get, then FoxReg in the VFP In General section of the Files will take care of it. Download it and update your registry. This provides keys that are deleted from the registry when VB5, Office 97 and other programs are installed after VFP5. As always when playing with your registry, be sure you have a backup copy!
