In a CONFIG.FPW file in that same folder put RESOURCE=OFF as one of the lines. The potential problem is that the VFP app needs the FOXUSER table. If that is the case, you can change the line in CONFIG.FPW to: RESOURCE=.\SUBFOLDER\FOXUSER.DBF
The DOS app config file is CONFIG.FP so there will be no conflict between the versions.
