Some time ago I tried to get help with my Foxpro 2.6 for Windows crashing out unexpectedly in Windows 2000. To make a very long story short, this is what is happening:

If you define a network printer as your default printer, and that printer is not available (either you are not connected to the network or the printer is not connected to the network), FoxPro 2.6 for Windows will unexpectedly close under Windows 2000 whenever you:

1) Try to open a screen.
2) Try to open a report.
3) Try to print a report.

That was it. Maybe this scrap of information can be useful for someone else working on a 2.6 legacy system.
