Unless you're CONFIG.FPW points to the C: drive, you might not be able to have multiple people have their own copy. You might also need to have multiple apps running on the same box at the same time, and as far a VFP is concerned, that's the same as multiple users.

Plus, if you specify which one you're using, you don't have to guess which CONFIG.FPW you're actually running with.
