Thanks Bonnie

I must admit that I've generally only had to do maintenance with FPD26, taking over other people's progs, rebuilding apps, etc., but never getting well stuck into it. I wasn't aware of these issues. I've been using VFP for some 12 years now and it kills me to have to use 2.6 :-)

>>I've just sent out a bug fixed system (in FPD26) to a client who has just reported to me the following sequence:
>>
>>On trying to run the system from his existing icon he gets the message:
>>
>>"This program is set to run in MS-DOS" and says that he needs to close all other programs.
>>
>>He is in W 98 and nowt else is running, so he answers Y" to the continure message.
>>
>>A message then pops up that "AMM386 is not installed".
>>
>>He hits a key and the computer reboots.
>>
>>Now, it's possible I built this system using FoxproX, rather than Foxpro. Could this be the reason? As in my other thread today, this is the same system that many clients are/were happily using. This is embarrassing as this was meant to fix a wee bug he had (to do with the printing to a file from the other message) but now it's catastrophic.

>>I'm losing the plot today as I have at least 3 clients with problems so please HELP!!!!!
