Craig,

I go by the numbers and do my research well. What I asked was: Are there any issues concerning running VFP on 64 bit machines that I should be aware of? Despite the FAQ issued by Microsoft, VFP indeed runs on 64-bit machines.

Best,

>Microsoft has never said VFP will not run on a 64 bit machine. What they said was that you won't get a 64 bit version of VFP. There are dozens of posts on this forum an others (if you count others, I'll bet it's in the hundreds) from people asking if it will run on 64 bit and/or Windows 7 and now Windows 8.

>>Just for fun, I put the VFP runtime files on Windows 7 64bit and ran a couple of our apps, despite the stern warning from Microsoft that VFP would not run on 64bit machines, The applications ran without a hitch. But I am not satisfied or happy that everything is hunky-dory. Are there any specific issues I should be aware of when running VFP 9.0 on 64bit operating systems?
