Where is it 'known', Sergey... has it been mentioned here on UT?

>>I just installed VFP 8.0 on a Pentium III Windows XP Pro box. Under Options, File Locations, I can set the Search Path for the current session OK. I can hit "Set as Default", and it appears to be working. However, after I exit and return, the Search Path is blank. Other changes I made to File Locations are there, but Search Path is blank. I checked the registry, and the values I set are there (I assume in the right place, because there are separate tabs for VFP 7 and 8, and the search path is stored in the same field under each).
