Gary;

As Craig suggested you can recompile the application. You may or may not want to do this. It works and removes some problems but can introduce others. If you have to upgrade or add a feature or fix a bug that can be interesting. Chances are you will spend time rewriting parts of your app if you do this. You never know.

There is also the fast patch for computers using CPU speeds of 333 Mhz or greater. Note this is for FoxPro 2.6a.

I would suggest if you upgrade your hardware you could run into problems with printing, video drivers and other anomolies. I am not saying you will have these problems. However the chances are great that one or more users will have a problem.

It can be worth a try but test before you go live and have additional plans which can be placed in effect - "just incase"! :)
