>We have a client that wants to upgrade his PC's from Win 3.1 on a Netware network to Win NT Workstation peer-to-peer network. He is running SBT Pro 3.0 right now, which is a Foxw 2.6 application, but the network is unstable and must be replaced soon. He can only afford a hardware upgrade right now, and the upgrade to VFP will come later.

The only problem that we have had is the known problem that FPW 2.6 will not run on faster Pent PC's. Faster being 300 up MHz. That is a patch that has worked very well for us. You can find it at http://www.abri.com/foxpro.html under FPW fast CPU Fix. You may also find that print preview's look like crap. The only work around that we have found is
1. Dont do previews
2. Do two forms one with bigger fonts for previews.

Some one else may have had other problems, but this is all we have had.
