>We just swapped out our old windows 98 computer for one that runs windows xp. we are running foxpro 2.5. when i try access a database file, foxpro comes up with an error message "this is not a database file". i have tried to correct the problem using the compatability wizard, but that did not permanently fix the problem.
Hi Jonathan,
You haven't mentioned the "Divide by zero" error that often shows up on newer, faster machines. There's a patch at
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=240982. For FPW 2.5 use the IPatchFP.exe since it doesn't check the version as the Patch_26.exe version does.
