Hi George,
Why use Notepad if you have VFP editor (MODIFY FILE/COMMAND)? :)
>Yes, but there's still a lot of work to do in correcting paths, etc. Go to the registry editor and export HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\VisualFoxPro\7.0. Once VFP 8 is installed, open the reg file with Notepad, and change the necessary references (7.0 to 8.0 in all cases) and paths. Then delete the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\VisualFoxPro\8.0 entry and import from the modified registry file.
