Jos,

Run VFP8.exe once with /regserver command-line switch.

>6) I uninstalled and reinstalled VFP8 hoping that this would associate all VFP files with the VFP8.exe. No luck - they were still associated to VFP7.exe
>7) I tried running VFP8.exe /regserver but this did not help
>8) Under explorer/tools/folder options/File Types tab I have re-associated DBF with VFP8.exe.
