>>>About 2 weeks ago I started getting an invalid page fault from windows explorer when I double click on my newly built vfp exe. I thought this was strange, but maybe I have something running that is conflicting in memory. I have since talked to one of the other programmers that works here and he indicated that he has been receiving the same invalid page fault for several weeks now. He does not remember it ever happening with VFP 5.0 only with VFP 6.0. I build my applicatins and compile my exes on a novell network and run them from a mapped drive. My collegue has been getting this error on a network as well as a local drive. We are not workig on the same project or the same code. But our concepts of a splash screen coming up before the main screen are the same. Has anyone else experienced this invalid page fault from windows explorer when double clicking on your exe?

>Where does one find an update to the intellipoint drivers?

Microsoft, although I'm not certain of the procedure to get them, since the Intellipoint drivers come with MS rats and are not downloadable from any of the free web pages AFAIK. The latest driver set in the retail MS packages for their wheel mice seems to work fine. I suspect that if you've registered your MS mice with MS, or got them with a system from someone like Dell, you can go to the vendor or MS and get an update.
