Hmmm... I'm not so sure about that. We got VFP 7 as an upgrade to VFP 6, and that as an upgrade to VFP 5, etc. If I'm reading the EULA right, installing VFP 8 as an _upgrade_ wipes out the entire chain, doesn't it? Of course, I could be reading it wrong. Those things are more for lawyers than consumers.
Thanks,
Michelle
