I had 5 and 6 on the same machine for a while, the only problems I had had to do with file associations, I believe the last one installed associates VFP files to itself. Not to mention that sometimes I ended up sending an exe compiled in 6 to a client that had 5 runtime libs, but if your careful you should have no problems AFAIK.

>I have need to use VFP5 and VFP6 for different projects at different times, but on the same NT machine. VFP5 is currently installed. Are there issues I need to be aware of before installing VFP6 on the same machine? Is there a summary of how to setup your machine to run multiple versions of VFP floating around that I should use as a reference? (VFP 7 will soon add to my mix...)
