>I have to install VFP 6 on several machines and would like the default settings/options to be the same. Is there any quick and easy way of setting the options on one machine and then copying them to the others?

Export the registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\VisualFoxPro\6.0 for the user with the currect settings as a .REG file, and then apply the changes to each userid for each machine involved. Win9x machines with user profiles enabled and NT boxes where users have individual profiles will have separate settings for each distinct user id.

The same can be done for VFP5; use the 5.0 rather than the 6.0 subkey. be very careful to ensure that all machines have the same revision of VFP installed (IOW, if some machines have VFP6 SP3 in place, all of them should; I can't be certain that all the registry values are handled identically under different versions.)
