>>Hi folks, I'm confident this question has been discussed before but I've not been around a lot lately and haven't seen this discussed. So my question is: Are there any issues with running VFP9 on Win7? The reason I ask is I'm about to get a new box and need to decide which OS (XP vs Win7) I want installed. So any insights will be appreciated.

(If I switch off Aero's "Use visual styles on Windows and buttons", they are back to normal.)

The problem we seem to run into is with merging PDFs and Amyuni. On Windows XP the report works well and on Windows 64 only the first report out of 4 comes into the final PDF.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
