backward compatibility?!?!? I would like to start seeing the removal of Foxbase/xBase obsolesence. IMHO, if you can't have converted [or at least started] to new tech by now, why are you using VFP?
I have no way of know how much of that bloat is from the backward compatibility. However, a lot of code that used to "hot-wire" (so to speak) Windows messaging services might be able to be dropped.
