Thanks Tracy.

>>>>>>Hi all,

>>>>>>We recently installed 6 new workstations on our LAN with XP Home on them. They are by far the best computers on this network (P4-2.0 Ghz). Each of these is now having a problem with our VFP 7 application.

>>>>>>On startup, opening the needed databases etc now takes about 45 seconds as opposed to nearly instantaneous, as before. This is in an NT4 domain. We have workstations using W98, W2K and now XP home. The XP Home ones are the only ones having the problem, and it is only on startup of the app. Afterwards, everything is fine. Even if you exit and restart the app, the 2nd run pops open right away.
