Yes, there are some bugs reported and recorded. They may or may not affect yoour application.

>2. Will I have to change existing VFP 6 apps in any way.

It's possible. If you have variables in the list (Local, Parameameters, e.t.c) separated only by spaces it will generate error in VFP 7. There're also new properties added to VFP objects that could clash with your framework.

Take also a look at 'Behavior Changes since the Previous Version' in the help and 'Known Issues' in readme.htm on VFP CD.

>3. Will I have any restrictions on current hardware/software

You can run your applications on any of above but you cannot run VFP 7 tunder Windows 95.

>If the answer to any of these questions is 'YES' I would be reluctant to upgrade .
