Hi Karl,

I found this problem too when I applied SP3. I even posted a message very similar to yours and got some confirmations. All I did was add the extension but your situations seems to be a bummer.

VFP ON-LINE HELP:

To use DO to execute a specific menu program, form program, or query, you must include its extension (.mpr, .spr, or .qpr).

WRONG!
