>after much investigation it seems a known issue with server 2008 and vista. see link here
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=951954Whoa, a known issue where a VFP app can crash a Vista host, or even a W2K8 Terminal Server! That's good to know - thanks for following up!
(No doubt other apps besides VFP could hit this bug and cause the crash, but VFP is living up to its reputation for being good at finding misconfigurations, bugs etc. ;))
Have you applied the hotfix, and did it work for you?
Regards. Al
