All I can say is give it a try. I don't have access to a 2008 Server today.

>Hello Fred,
>
>Under windows 2008 server, when I right click in explorer on the foxrun.pif there is not a 'Program' tab. The property sheet is radically changed from the property sheet under, for example, windows 2000 server. There is no place, that I can see, to change the setting for cmd line. I am wondering whether I can just change the foxrun.pif on a copy that is on my win2k server, and then copy the file to the 2008 server.
