Along with what Max said, there's another thing you can do:
modify command some.prg as 1251
This will treat the text in some.prg as it's written in codepage 1251
(or whatever, 1251 is just a guess). If it was written in 855 or 866,
you can
modify command some.prg as 866
....and Fox will translate your 1251 keystrokes into 866 keystrokes; this
way you can open a OEM codepage text and keep typing from VFP, no matter
what codepage you are currently running at.
One more thing you can do - in the .pjx file, right-click the .prg, and
you'll get a 'code page' in the popup. A .prg file doesn't have a
codepage mark, but it can be memorized in the project this way, so next
time you open it from the project manager, it will open in the proper
codepage (and get compiled in it, too).
A different question is if you have a non-PE (paneuropean) W95
installed, with active code page different from what you're trying to
use in VFP. VFP simply has no ability (that I've found) to display
characters beyond the 256 chars given in the current codepage. You can
have your national alphabet in your editor, memo fields, RTF controls -
just pick the font and _script_; but no controls have the script
property (heeeey, FoxWish.wake.up), so it's your machine's codepage
forever (or until VFP6, or until we find a workaround here).
