>- FoxPro 2.6 runs on Win2K.

>>I don't trust my sources (they're new to Win2000 too!) for some of this, so I thought I'd ask here.
>>
>>1. FPW2.6 apps will run "normally" under Win2000 if it's a virgin install.
>>
>>2. Word 2000 is an SDI like WordPad. (Does this sound like a step backwards to anyone else? Why did they do it this way?)
>>
>>3. Word 2000 does not have a "save as" for older formats like the Word95 format.
>>

Save as an RTF or Word 2.0 doc - both work fine. Even WordPad can handle these.

>>4. A 16-bit sound card will not work under Win2000.
