Sergey,

A thousand thank yous... just tell me where to send the check <s>. The -a switch solved it. Any idea why this happened?

>>Out of nowhere, my VFP7 will not start. I see a very quick Visual Foxpro screen flash by and then nothing. I tried repairing from the CD, then did a full uninstall+reinstall. I did a scan disk and full virus scan. Nothing. No other symptoms, nothing unusual happened on the computer (a recent Dell 8200 running XP pro).
