Hi Al:

Yes I can see that the Web Site is offering a new version of the patch called PATCH26.EXE (old one was PATCH2.EXE) so it has been upgraded.

But my customer says it still doesn't work, he is still getting "Numeric Overflow" at launch.

I can't test this myself because we don't use Windows XT. But on the surface it appears that PATCH26.EXE does not handle Windows XT.

We have already recompiled the program in VFP 6.0 and it works not badly but we had some sections involving key stroke macros that will have to be rewritten.

It appears that we will have to put this into 32 bit code if we want to deal with XT and whatever MS will come up with next.
