>Has anyone ever had a problem with an EXE created and compiled in Win95 behaving badly in Win 3.1? Both my development and test PCs are running Win95, and this VFP 3.0 app is working fine. When I install it on the client's Win 3.1 machines, I get errors like:

VFP does not support long filnames under Windows 3.1.

If you rename all your files to a maximum of 8 characters this should solve the problem.

Hope this works.
