>What I have found during my tests is that what you surely need to deploy VFP 8 apps in NT, as well as in Win9x, is to be sure that GDIPLUS.DLL is installed. If it's not, its just a few Kb to download from MSDN. After that, it's the usual MDAC, IE, etc, depending on what you're using.

Thanks - I'll keep this message available for future reference. I'm not going to worry about it until we have a final release of VFP8, but at that point I'll need to do some testing with NT and see what I find. As a "major-subscriber" to many MS products, my gov't agency has guaranteed full MS NT support until 12/31/03. However, that may not help with VFP8, since it specifically does not list NT as being supported in any way, shape, or form...

The alternative, since I want to move to vfp8 ASAP, is to keep parallel apps running & updated in both vfp7 & 8. But I'm sure you all know how much fun that can be...
