>We have an application written in VFP 6.0. We are moving to VFP 7 (probably 8 soon), so we have recently been developing new enhancements in VFP 7. Some of our users are running the existing VFP 6.0 app, and testing new enhancements compiled using VFP 7. IOW, there running with VFP 6 and VFP 7 runtimes are their workstations. The application has some legacy BROWSE windows, and some of the users get an "Invalid Browse Id" VFP error message when running the VFP 7 version of the application. They will only get the error once, per browse window. IOW, after they've entered the browse once, the next time in they don't get the error.

Are you using BROWSE LAST or BROWSE PREFERENCE in your code? Are you sharing a resource file (FOXUSER.DBF) between VFP6 and VFP7? At the very least, use a separate resource file between each verson. You can specify the name of the resource file to use in the CONFIG.FPW, so you'd need to have a separate one of these for each version, too.
