There's one problem I know with FoxPro 2.0 : on fast computers, you can get duplicate file names when you ask for a random name with the function .... (of which I forgot the name, think a SYS()-function). As a result of this (I think), when you edit e.g. some program code of a screen, you get errors, because FoxPro makes errors when creating temporary files for it's edit buffer.

This problem isn't specific for NT though.

We ran our old program in a DOS window in NT 4.0 without problems (we don't use any temporary files in our own programs).

Marc.
