>>I noted that the VS service pack 1 contained a patch for VFP5a fixing some bugs so I downloaded the core patch files to install it. However, I don't have a lot of space on my hard drive and the expanding files overflowed it before finishing. Does anyone know if the VFP patch alone exists and if so, how to get it?

Thanks Arnon.

My mistake, I meant SP2. Too bad there isn't a separate patch. Would make it a lot easier.

It would indeed be nice to a 1 TB drive "like the rest of you" :-). But I actually thought :-) the 2 GB drive in the machine provided to me would be sufficient for most purposes. Hmmm . . . it would appear that generally there no longer remains any concern for efficient use of disk space or even program speed, just "get a faster, bigger machine". ( This is not pointed at you, just thinking out loud :-) ) However, with software apparently outpacing hardware, it would seem that we should be concerned about such things.
