>>Since I have upgraded my PC to Win2k, I now finds that I don't have any more instances of VFP 7 stuck in memory as I used to have under Win ME. By that, I mean, that even if no VFP instance was showing in the task bar, some were still residing in memory. Probably, this was due to not being closed properly. With Win2k, this has dissappeared. At least, after two weeks, I didn't get one so far.

I'm not sure I understand what you're trying to say. To clarify, what I said what in reference that manually closing VFP in Win ME, sometimes, a reference was staying in memory. This never happened in Win2k. By manually closing, I mean exiting VFP with either Quit or other smooth mecanism. I didn't mean I was killing the app from the task manager.
