>I seem to remember that years ago VFP had a thing in the license that said you had to charge for each copy of a compiled program that you distributed. I would like to put a restricted version of my new app on the web as a free download. Does anyone know if this is OK with VFP 9? I can't find a thing on it anywhere but I don't want to get in the cross hairs of MS.

AFAIK as long as you have the VFP license you can distribute your applications (executables) royalty free.
