>I recently had to get a new computer which came with Win Vista on it. I am trying to run an older application written in VFP 6 on it. The windows do not render correctly of course, but I can live with this. Now, however I am getting data errors when the app tries to access tables and update them.

Before responding, I went back and checked a large VFP6 app. running under VISTA (running on a Virtual Machine) on this computer. The DataBase is on a separate server. Everything looks good and runs with no problems that I know of. All the windows/screens look as good as they do under XP.

I haven't had a chance to check every screen, but if there is a problem that I missed seeing I'm interested in finding out about it. So far, the client doesn't have any Vista machines, but from what I've seen in my testing I've told them the program should run okay when they do buy Vista machines.
