>Hi All,

I did read some older articles on how Microsoft offered a stripped down version of XP which could run a VFP application which had a pen type interface for a signature. What I'm after is if the latest tablets is capable of running a normal VFP application which the user could use it's touch screen to click a button or select an item from a drop down list ?

I have a slate (EXOPC) that runs Windows7 Home as its native OS. I've also modified it to dual boot Android 2.2. My VFP apps runs fine under Windows7 and of course, do not run under Android. The version of Android that I'd used does not run very well with touch only on this device. It requires a keyboard to be plugged into the slate via USB port to make it a better user experience. I'd had to modify one of my VFP apps to make the touch experience a bit more friendly (larger buttons for chubby fingers) and tweaked Windows itself.
