>Actually problem is, I think, with Windows 8. Client has a network that has been running our VFP app fine for 3 yrs. He upgraded one pc to Windows 7 about 8-9 months ago and everything seemed to be running fine. Then last week we started having a problem. The operator would generate several cash receipts transactions and when we went back to print the register they weren't there. Not deleted, just not there. I found out during our conversation, that they had just upgraded two pc's to Windows 8 about the same time this started happening, about a week ago.
