Just got our new Vista system, and started testing some of our legacy Foxpro 2.6 applications. This is the first incompatibility we detected:

The RUN Command does not SEE any files!

For example when you run
RUN dir/p

It does not show the file names.

If you run RUN COPY *.DBF c:\trash
It responds with "File does not exist..."

So, if you are using the RUN command to copy files w/Wild Card name/extension, you'll have problem (Since Foxpro2 does not support wild card in it's COPY FILE command).

I even right clicked on all the Fox*.exe files and set their compatibility to Windows XP (since it works just fine under XP).

Any ideas or suggestions will be appreciated.
