>SlowStart is NOT a patch. Rather, it is a wrapper program that ties the CPU up for a specified time and then calls the Fox Design Time executeable or the EXE of your Fox-based EXE. A guy in Mike Brachman's shop - I used to work with Mike at MEI - wrote SlowStart - and if I am not mistaken - has been placed in the Public Domain. At the very least - I know that it is FreeWare...

Minor correction correction...
Christof didn't say that Slowstart was a patch. He was saying that they only published the Slowstart info because the other "better" solution *is* a patch. The Slowstart folks also recommend the "other" patch solution.

Time to patch things up around here :-)
