If you need two versions under the same operating system, I'd suggest using a product like System Commander or the Boot Manager from Partition magic v4.

>Your saying that I can run a VFP 6.0 (no SP3) compiled application on a client maching WITH SP3 runtimes? If this is true then I can begin upgrading the clients runtimes as time permits. When they are all upgraded then release the application compile with SP3. That will ease the transisition and keep me from having to create a new application name for the upgrade.

So far, I've been able to run both .APPs and .EXEs created under VFP6 pre-SP3 under the SP3 runtimes; obviously, without access to the features added to SP3.
