We have tables that are shared between FPD26 and VFP6/7 apps that work fine if you use the set compatible command as well as set the codepage on the tables to 437 (MSDOS). (When we install the VFP6/7 apps we set the codepage on all of the tables to 437 before the app is opened the first time after the install). Tables created on the fly in VFP though must be copied to type fox2x for the FPD26 app to see/use them. The biggest problem though that I have not been able to surmount is memory files. If you save information stored in variables to a memory file in VFP6/7, the FPD26 app cannot access them. Perhaps someone has found a workaround for this? I don't want a separate directory for FPD26 mem files because they both need to open the same files to share the information.
