>I would like to use some of VFP's MAPI functionality and don't want to rewrite the entire 2.6 app. I have written a utility in VFP and would like to call it from 2.6. Anybody know of any issues with calling VFP from 2.6 - is using the RUN command the only way.

No - VFP supports DDE, so if the 2.6 app is running under FPW, you can conduct a DDE conversation, creating a VFP DDE Server to conduct the VFP side of the conversation. If you're using FPDOS, you're pretty much stuck with RUN...
