>>Yep, just went over the stuff that came with the last MSDN update. It included Win2K and the 64 bit SDK. From the documents, in order to produce 64 bit code you had to run VC++ under the Beta 3 release of Win2000 Professional.

Nope. Both NT and 9x go the way of the dinosauer.

Perhaps, perhaps not. I really don't know. Like you said, better to stop the speculation here. I will, however, remind people of what happened with last time FoxPro was modified due to a change in the underlying OS. We got VFP. If significant internal changes are to be made, the time to do it is when you're modifying it to take advantage of a new OS. So...

BTW, the version of VC++ mentioned was 6.0. I left that out of my previous.
