Hi Ken,
These are welcomed improvements! I will certainly give the ISE released with VFP8 a whirl.
Thanks for all the efforts put forth by you and the Fox Team.

>There are also several new enhancements to the InstallShield Express that is included with VFP 8.0 based on customer feedback. Those new features include:
>
>1. Upgrade View - create new product versions that will automatically uninstall the previous version (must be MSI-based) and install the new one
>
>2. Windows XP support - conditionally install the project or individual files based on the presence of this OS
>
>3. Merge Modules path modification - Ability to add additional directories to the search path used to populate the Merge Module view
>
>4. Windows Installer 2.0 support - WI 2.0 is used by default, with an option to revert to WI 1.2 engines (typically to avoid the SP6 requirement for NT 4 systems)
>
>5. Detects previous installations - Installation detects existing versions of InstallShield Express and displays a warning message about overwrite during installation
>
>6. Post-setup EXE - A dialog can be included at the end of an installation that contains a checkbox for launching an EXE
Microsoft hears loudest what the VFP community says about Visual FoxPro by looking at the bottom line!
Support the product. Buy the latest version!
