Jim,

Thanks for the info.. I think Sergey hit the nail on the head. I had a beta ID still in my Registry somehow. I'll uninstall completely and reinstall later, then apply the patch. I'm just too busy to do this right now but when I get home tonight (where I had the same thing happen) I'll try it there. It's safer too.. <g>

>>>I am having some difficulties to install SP1. I downloaded Windows Installer 2 and installed it. After rebooting, I clicked on vfp70sp1.msp. It launches Windows Installer. The first thing that happens is a request to install the VFP 7 CD. The message is "The feature you are trying to use is on a CD-ROM or other removable disk that is not available." What should I do to resolve that issue and why a simple service pack isn't able to run by itself without requiring a pre installed updated file?
