>Microsoft tells us there is “no problem using VFP 5.0 and VFP 6.0 on the same machine. That may be the case

FWIW, I have FP 2.0, FP/D2.6a, FP/W2.6a, VFP 3.0b, VFP 5.0a and VFP 6 all on the machine I'm writing on now. As long as you install each in a separate directory, they're perfectly happy to live together.
