Bob,
I doubt there's any issue here that nobody would talk about ;)

Are you dividing by zero anywhere? I had a problem about 2 years ago, maybe with VFP 3.0, where some PC's (not most) would crash if you divided by zero with an app loaded. You could do it on the command line ok, but within the app it would crash - it was a bear to track that one down. My practice nowadays is to always check the divisor before dividing...
