>Could you give me some advice on VFP 7. We currently have many, many aplications written in VFP 6 for many different customers. Each PC has the vfp6renu.dll and vfp6r.dll situated in whatever system directory, and then the different exe's in their own default dir's.

VFP7R.DLL - 3.25 MB
VFP7ENU.DLL - 880 KB

I have read that they will but I have seen a couple of messages from people saying that they encountered problems. So I would recommend changing the run-times when you upgrade the EXE.

IMO, very stable!!! However, you will need to download the latest patch from http://msdn.microsoft.com/foxpro.
