>Vista-to-Vista file locking does not work. It can cause your VFP apps to freeze and/or deadlock, or even corrupt data by totally disregarding locks. If you are relying on file locking for almost anything (note that VFP does this whenever it adds a record to a table, for example), it *will not work* in a Vista-to-Vista scenario.
