>I am successfully running both VFP 7 SP1 and VFP 9 SP2 on my "old" XP machine. I now have a new machine running Vista. I installed VFP 9 successfully successfully on the new machine from my original VFP disk, but my VFP 7 disk doesn't work (read errors) any more.

Hi Bob,

I *think* you can just copy your MS VFP folder from Program Files on your old PC to the new one and things should work. You may need to register some files like the run time and help files, but you can download a runtime installer from the net (or create one yourself on your old PC). That should work.
Frank.
