The question was, "What do you tell your customers". If I tell them it "will" and then for some reason it doesn't, who will the customer blame?

Additionally, there may be issues that cause a VFP app to not run. 32 bit ODBC drivers won't work on 64bit Windows. What if the application accesses some obscure database that the customer has and 64 bit ODBC drivers aren't available? What about ActiveX controls? Do I know for sure they'll work?

Bottom line, there are lots of issues that can still cause a VFP app to not work on 64 bits. Hence, "should".

>"Should". You wouldn't say "will"?
