Hi Walter:
I use Twinbridge with the English version of XP (also used it with Window 3, Windows 95, Windows 98, Windows 2000) never had a problem using it with FoxPro DOS, FoxPro Windows, and all versions of VFP. Not sure what kind of problems you are expecting regarding double character sets. I never had a problem ... using VFP. The only problem, if you can call it that, is how the characters display. They seem smaller than what the points size is and you have to fiddle a little to make it look good.
They have a trial version ... try it out.
