They don't need FoxPro, they just need the FoxPro runtimes. Those should already be on their old machine so they should be able to copy them over. You can get a FoxPro for Windows app running on a newer machine. I have a really old Fox 2.6 for Windows app running on my Vista machine. However, I did have to set up an icon and set the properties to run as Admin. But my point is, you shouldn't have to rewrite the app or recompile it in Visual FoxPro.



>I have an old customer who was running a FoxPro for Windows program. They got new computers, and didn't know they needed the Foxpro. Can this thing get recompiled w/o too much trouble in VFP? All of the source code is there.
