Hi Mike:

Are we reading the same thing? Ken says :-

>If a developer wishes to distribute the Visual FoxPro runtime with an application, the runtime may only operate in conjunction with a Microsoft Windows platform

He is using the word "may" meaning "you have permission to" and not "may" meaning "you might stand a chance of it running in". Your intepretation of the above lends the possibility that the VFP runtimes may or may not function correctly even when running in/with a Windows platform.

FWIW, IMHO Ken's clarification is about as clear as mud. Its says very little and is open to interpretation, as indeed you have chosen to interpret what you have seen in a way that you wish to.

Now if it said that you could distribute the runtimes to a non-Windows platform as long as there is a VFP licence purchased for each target machine, now that would be a different matter altogether. But it doesn't say that does it? What it implies is that if you do anything other than use the runtimes on a Windows platform, then you are "on your own" and you should seek legal counsel.

Best
