Hi Peter,

>This started a few days ago. Nothing has changed, I use the latest vfp version from the MSDN discs. The only new software installed is office 2000 and it is not running while I work in VFP, normally.

Microsoft usually recommends to install beta software NOT on a production computer. The new beta changes a lot of common files that certainly can cause the problems. Reinstalling VFP might help here, but then Office might not conitnue to work.

>By the way, are you German or The American In Deutschland?

The last time I checked I was German. *g*
